2022 Legal Aid Golf Classic

A new spin on an old classic!

By Jack Costello, Deputy Executive Director

The Montgomery Bar Foundation is proud to present the Legal Aid Golf Classic once again on Monday, June 27, 2022. The annual event will be held at a new location: Cedarbrook Country Club (180 Penllyn Pike, Blue Bell, PA 19422).

Located on 210 acres in Blue Bell, Cedarbrook is a 100+-year-old family-oriented club featuring a par-72 golf course characterized by an incredible array of mature tree specimens, several large ponds and the Wissahickon Creek meandering through seven holes…The design is spacious with large, softly undulating greens that make up over four acres in total area. The course is a favorite among local golfers who enjoy the challenging design but are not overwhelmed by too severe a layout.

In addition to the new location, the format of the event has also been reconsidered. No longer will golfers need to wake up before sunrise in order to make it to the first tee at 8:00 AM sharp. This year’s outing will begin with a luncheon buffet at 12:00 PM, followed by a shotgun start at 1:30 PM. The format will still be a “best-ball” scramble featuring numerous prize holes and on-course refreshments.

Golf will be followed by a special fundraising dinner event, featuring a silent auction, raffle prizes, and more. Non-golfers are encouraged to attend the post-golf dinner and participate in the fundraising festivities. Proceeds from the event, along with a contribution from the Montgomery Bar Association, are donated to Legal Aid of Southeastern Pennsylvania.

As MBF President Kate M. Harper, Esq., mentioned in her article, “The Montgomery Bar Foundation regularly supports the work of Legal Aid of Southeastern PA…as its mission is to promote and provide ‘Access to Justice,’ particularly for the most vulnerable among us. Legal Aid of Southeastern PA needs the support and delivers justice, compassion, and advocacy every day to our neighbors in Montgomery County.”
