An incredible night celebrating 20 years of the legacy center!
On Saturday, October 24th Legacy Youth Tennis and Education hosted the LEGACY Annual Gala right at home at the LEGACY Center. The night honored longtime supporter, staff member and friend, Sibby Brasler alongside Grand Slam Champion Kim Clijsters. The night revolved around celebrating 20 years of the LEGACY Center and all the impact that has come with it.
On one side of the indoor courts, guests walked around the transformed space looking at the array of incredible auction items, a live jazz band, an exhibit of LEGACY student’s artwork and a display of the last 20 years of LEGACY Gala invitations. Guests had cocktails, chatted, snapped photos and watched some LEGACY kids play on-court.
The other side of the Center was transformed into a beautiful dining room where guests enjoyed a lovely dinner, an exciting live auction and a live conversation between NBC Sports Philadelphia’s John Clark and Awardee Kim Clijsters. The night ended with an incredible game of Heads & Tails with a $10,000 prize!
It was an amazing night celebrating the Center and everything that LEGACY continues to provide for the community.
To everyone who attended and supported the evening, thank you for your generosity and continued belief in what we do. Your support helps us bring young people from different neighborhoods and backgrounds together, creating opportunities for them to learn, grow, and succeed both on and off the tennis court.
