Mac Christensen of Bountiful, Lee Dickemore of Ogden and the late Tony Stilinovich of Salt Lake City will receive Distinguished Service Awards from the Utah Sports Hall of Fame Foundation at the annual Ream's Scholarship Dinner Feb. 22 at the South Towne Exposition Center in Sandy.

The awards recognize outstanding contributions to sports in the state. Also on the program will be the awarding of eight $2,000 college scholarships to Utah high school students by Paul and Ruby Ream.

Christensen, who founded the Mr. Mac's clothing stores, was a member of Weber State's board of trustees and has supported athletes and teams across the state at every level of sports.

Dickemore, now principal at Roy High School, is a former coach and athletic director at Weber High, where he was an all-state basketball player. The Utah High School Activities Association named him athletic director of the year in 1990.

Stilinovich, a longtime sporting goods dealer, was extensively involved in Ute Conference football, American Legion baseball and high school track and field.

The dinner begins at 7 p.m. following a 6 p.m. reception. For reservations ($30), send checks to Scott Mayne, 10182 S. Cornerstone, South Jordan, 84095, or call 801-253-7361.
