Dallas Police Chief Eddie Garcia will hit the links for The Rotary Club of Dallas’ Back The Blue Charity Golf Tournament. The ninth-annual event benefits Safer Dallas, a nonprofit devoted to supporting the Dallas Police Department and public safety. Event co-chairs are Dana Devance and Chris Glaubitz. The morning kicks off with check-in and the silent auction at 10 a.m. and lunch at 11 a.m. Shotgun start is at noon and a post-tourney happy hour is planned for 5 p.m. followed by the awards banquet and dinner with keynote speaker Chief Garcia at 6 p.m. Guests can bid on a variety of “Back the Blue”-themed items during the banquet’s live and silent auctions – from a police officer ride-along and helicopter ride, to dinner with the police chief, to signed memorabilia, gift baskets and more. The mission of Safer Dallas – which has raised over $21 million to support DPD – is to protect citizens from becoming victims of crime through a unique partnership with the Dallas Police Department. The Rotary Club of Dallas’ mission is to tackle local and international issues that are important to the Dallas community and the world through community service, humanitarian projects, fellowship and more.
