About the Sponsor
Adam grew up in Spirit Lake, IA active in wrestling, football, track and 4-H before continuing his studies at DMACC, graduating as a Certified Ford Master Technician, and went on to earn his ASE Master Certifications. Adam joined the team at Shade Tree Auto in 2016 and quickly became an invaluable employee. His hard work and dedication helped earn the shop a number of national and international recognitions. He enjoyed playing softball on a team with co-workers, and when he married his wife in 2018, everyone was there to help him celebrate.
In 2019, Adam lost his fight with esophageal cancer. Although his life was cut short, he found happiness through his marriage and his job as a technician. Shade Tree Auto has created the Adam Dreeszen Memorial Scholarship to honor his memory, and provide the opportunity for someone to find the same joy Adam had in the automotive industry.
