Scottsdale, Ariz. – Troon®, the leader in providing golf and club-related leisure and hospitality services, kicked off its 2026 Community Swing series with the first of 23 community-focused events at Jackson Park Golf Course in Seattle, Washington on Tuesday, April 28. More than 120 people enjoyed a dynamic mix of activities, including complimentary Toptracer range play, golf instruction, contests, food and beverage, face painting, ladder ball and more as part of the four-hour Jackson Park event.
Community Swing is a nationwide event series designed to introduce local communities to the Troon experience – where hospitality, recreation, and connection come together. Hosted at municipal golf courses across the country, Community Swing events go beyond traditional tee times, transforming golf facilities into vibrant community hubs with games, food and beverages, open space and more. Whether a seasoned golfer, a curious beginner, or just looking for a great place to gather, these events are an open invitation to enjoy the park-like spaces, connect with neighbors, and engage with a brand dedicated to growing the game and strengthening local ties.
