| When the going gets tough, the tough go
golfing. In the office of course. Since 1997, Asher & Company, Ltd. has been
breaking ground in office golf. Founded as a tax season stress-buster for all employees,
the Asher Open has become synonymous with the firm.
The Asher Open transforms the office into a 9 hole miniature golf course, complete with
hills, traps, trick holes and a pro shop. The success of the first year’s event
guaranteed subsequent Asher Opens. What no one realized at the time, however, is that the
light-hearted busy-season breather would develop into a great fund-raiser too.
Support a Great Cause
Our defending champion Tim Dirkes chose
the American Diabetes
Association as the benefactor of this year’s Asher Open.
Tim says, "I chose the American Diabetes
Association because I know too many individuals affected by this
disease and hope one day people can live without it."

Asher Open in the News
 Overwhelming
interest in the novel idea brought ABC’s local affiliate to the office for the second
Asher Open. Channel 6’s Don Polec featured the firm in a lengthy special interest
segment that prompted a host of phone calls and comments from clients and friends of the
firm. The third year, Asher & Company was visited by Comcast sports commentator, Pete
Christie, who again gave the organization a sizable chunk of air time during his sports
segment during his dual with Steve Carr. Of course, Steve got to say, "I beat
Pete." The fourth Asher Open was filmed  for CBS’s local station, Channel 10, who aired the
clip on the eleven o’clock news. The fifth annual Asher Open rated a spot on Channel
10's early news. Aside from TV coverage, the Asher Open has fared equally well with the
print media. Since its inception, it has been the subject of several articles appearing in
publications such as: Philadelphia Inquirer, Philadelphia Business Journal, CPA Journal
and CPA News.
