|
Dust off your clubs and get ready to join us at the 11 th Annual Child Advocates Golf Classic on Monday, September 26, 2016 at the Philadelphia Cricket Club!
Choose from two amazing and challenging courses; Wissahickon or Militia Hill. Golfweek ranked Wissahickon as a "30th Classic Golf Course in the United States." Militia Hill was nominated as "Best New Course" in 2003 and named a "Top 25" golf course in Pennsylvania by Golf Digest. Either way you can't go wrong playing on these stunning (and historic) greens!
All proceeds from the event will support Child Advocates Project for Medically Needy Children , a critical program that teams staff social workers with specially trained volunteer lawyers to secure necessary medical treatment, special education, rehabilitation services and permanent nurturing homes for our young clients with serious or chronic medical needs.
