IN RECOGNITION OF EXCELLENCE
Who We Are
The Triangle Club of Montgomery County is a 501(c)(3) non-profit volunteer organization which works in cooperation with local high schools to recognize students who excel in scholarship, sports and service. Each spring, at the Dannehower Award Banquet, the organization awards college scholarships to high school seniors nominated by their high school administrators.
The scholarships provided by The Triangle Club are partially–funded by an annual basketball tip-off tournament. Other award funding comes from generous contributions by local businesses and individuals.
The William J. Dannehower Award
Each Spring, high school administrators throughout Montgomery County, Pennsylvania nominate one senior from their respective districts to be considered for the William F. Dannehower Award. After careful consideration by a non-partial committee, three top high school “Senior Stars” are chosen to receive awards of $3,000, $2,000 or $1,000. There are also three specially designated awards of $500 given to runners up. All nominees receive an award of at least $250. The awards are presented at the prestigious Dannehower Banquet.
CELEBRATE SPORTSMANSHIP
Annual Tip Off Tournament
The scholarships provided by The Triangle Club are partially–funded by an annual basketball tournament, held in December at Montgomery County Community College. Every year, four area high school basketball teams are selected to participate in the Tip Off Tournament. The event last two nights and every team gets the opportunity to play twice.
The 2021 Tournament is on December 10 & 11. See the top of this page for details.
