Member Ribbon Cutting Celebration

Thursday, September 10th

5:00 pm

Ribbon Cutting: 5:30 pm


Join us as we celebrate the grand opening of a second location for one of our distinguished

law firm members --with an evening of connection, celebration, and community spirit.


Perna & Abracht is expanding with a new satellite office in Oxford, complementing their long-standing Kennett Square location.


The new office represents continued growth—not a relocation—and expands their ability

to serve the community.


Guests will have the opportunity to meet the firm’s team, tour the new space, and learn more about their services and commitment to the community.


The official ribbon cutting ceremony will highlight this important achievement, followed by time for networking and conversation in a welcoming, celebratory atmosphere.


We invite you to be a part of this memorable occasion as we support and celebrate the continued growth of our local business community.
