GMCF is hosting our second annual charity tournament called the Pickleball Meltdown! Proceeds will benefit the Capstone “Fuel Your Neighbors” campaign. It gets pretty cold up here in Vermont and this campaign provides heating assistance and food to families and individuals in our region who might need some help. The format of the tournament will be a scramble-style doubles tournament, which means you’ll register as an individual and then be partnered with other players at your skill level. Each player will get 9 games of play and there will be raffles and other opportunities to donate above and beyond the $40 entry fee. All proceeds go to the “Fuel Your Neighbors” campaign, as GMCF is donating the court time and resources to run this charitable event. In 2025, the tournament raised and donated $5,280.
