THANK YOU to everyone who made Dude 2016 a success! This year’s campaign has raised $48,294, and counting!
Every dollar raised goes to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to further their mission: to cure blood cancers and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. Because of your support, we are able to continue to fund these initiatives right here in Eastern Pennsylvania. Much of the credit goes to our fantastic teams for the fundraising dedication.
Congratulations and take ‘er easy’s to all of our winners and to everyone who knocked down a pin!

We want to recognize our generous sponsors: Blank Rome, BrainDo, JMS Technology, Heathery Project and The Martin Architectural Group. The in-kind support from Yards Brewing Company, BrainDo, Thrive, and Cindi Landmesser Photography was truly appreciated as well, and from all of the contributing businesses and restaurants who donated prizes. Our gratitude goes out to South Bowl for providing us with a perfect home once again, and to Boot & Saddle for hosting the official after party and donating all ticket sales to the cause. Hats off to Lush Life and Swift Technique who rocked our after party. TDHC would not be possible if it were not for all of these collective efforts.
