Ritche joined the Army immediately after graduating from college. During his time serving our country, Ritche traveled all over the world and even spent multiple years serving in Africa. His strong work ethic and dedication led to him becoming Major General in the United States Army. After retiring from a 39.5 year military career, Ritche began searching for a way to give back to the community. Luckily, Ritche’s strong moral compass led him to get involved with First Tee – Sandhills!
“When I found out about the First Tee program and started to learn more, I came to realize how similar the core values of First Tee are to the core values of the Army and those my wife and I abide by. I believed in what the organization was doing and wanted to be a part of helping the next generation of kids in our community.”
