Legacy Gala
The 2023 Legacy Gala “Soiree at the Speakeasy” was a major success! Those in attendance at this year’s “roaring 20’s” themed event enjoyed delicious dinner and drinks with fellow attorneys, judges and friends while helping the Foundation donate to charities in the community. Those in attendance at this event had the privilege to help raise over $8,000 in funds during the "Raise the Paddle" portion of the program for this year’s highlighted recipient, Kansas Legal Services, and celebrate this year’s Legacy Award recipient, Matthew Keenan, Executive Director of Kansas Legal Services. Kansas Legal Services is legal aid in Kansas, providing equal access to justice for the most vulnerable Kansans. More information about Kansas Legal Services can be found HERE. This year’s event took place on September 30, 2023 at Union Horse Distilling Co. The annual Legacy Gala is always a can’t miss event, with the theme of the event changing each year. In recent years, attendees enjoyed the event themes of LegaSki, Lei’d Back Legacy Luau, and Kentucky Derby.
Golf Tournament
The annual Foundation golf tournament is one of the year’s can’t miss social and fundraising events. The tournament offers all members of the legal community -- golfers and non-golfers -- the opportunity to spend a day on the beautiful St. Andrews Golf Club course enjoying each other’s company. Court staff, attorneys, judges and local businesses all gathered for a day of excellent food, drinks and entertainment, while raising money for local charities. This 2023 tournament took place on September 8th, and the tournament raised over $15,000 for the Foundation’s charity partners in the community.
Wines and Vines
Each year the Foundation teams up with the Young Lawyers Section of the Johnson County Bar Association to bring you “Vines & Wines”, an annual event at a local winery where you can enjoy delicious wine and appetizers while catching up with fellow Johnson County attorneys and judges. The event in 2023 took place at the Bourgmont Winery in June, at which the Foundation was honored to present its donation to the Kansas Children’s Service League. More information about Kansas Children’s Service League may be found HERE.
