Hall of Fame/Gary Lindeblad
Inducted: 2007
Gary Lindeblad has been synonymous with Spokane golf since his two Spokane Junior City Junior Championships. After eleven years under the tutelage of Kaye Walker at Liberty Lake Golf Course, Gary took over the reigns at Indian Canyon Golf Course in 1985 and has been a fixture there ever since. In addition to running one of the busiest operations in the Northwest, Gary was instrumental in growing the Rosauers Open Invitational into the Section’s biggest championship and raising over $100,000 annually for the Vanessa Behan Crisis Nursery. A fine player, Gary played on seven Hudson Cup teams, one Senior Hudson Cup team and captained the 2004 squad. Gary also accomplished a rare feat in winning the 1990 Rosauers Open on his home course. Gary’s service to his fellow professionals is evidenced by his 20 years on the Employment Services Committee.
