Swing for a Cause: Join Us on the Course This June
Grab your clubs and tee off for a great cause! The Parton Parkinson’s Project invites you to its annual charity golf tournament on Monday, June 15, 2026, at Verdict Ridge Golf & Country Club in Denver, NC. We have 20 teams registered thus far, many great sponsors, and lots of amazing raffle prizes to make for a fun day.
The Parton Parkinson’s Project is a 501(3)(c) nonprofit founded in 2025 by Parton Law Managing Partner Corey Parton. In its inaugural year, the tournament brought together 92 golfers and 15 sponsors, raising more than $8,000 for the Parkinson’s Foundation’s Carolinas Chapter.
This year, we are building on that momentum with an even bigger goal.
