Golfers tee up for 10th annual Northern Home benefit
Northern Home for Children hosted its 10th Annual Benefit Golf Outing this Tuesday at the Philadelphia Cricket Club in Flourtown, Pa.
The all-day event was a celebration of the Roxborough-based social service provider’s 158 years of service to children and families.
After hitting some golf balls at the driving range, players teed off at noon for a shot gun start. The event continued through the night with cocktails, silent and live auctions, raffles, an award ceremony and dinner.
Northern Home expects to have a final tally of money raised by next week.
