Northwest Playground is proud to announce the 1st Annual Mickey Corso Scholarship Fun-Raiser, a new event in Washington created to bring together our community of parks, schools, partners, and industry leaders for a day of connection, competition, and purpose.
This inaugural tournament is more than just a great day on the course. It represents an opportunity to honor a lasting legacy while investing in the future of parks and recreation across our region.
This event is held in partnership with the Washington Recreation and Park Association (WRPA) and supports the Mickey Corso Scholarship Fund.
Mickey Corso’s contributions to parks and recreation continue to influence communities, professionals, and the spaces we help create every day. Through this tournament, we are proud to help carry that legacy forward.

From continuing education to national programs and certifications, this scholarship helps cultivate the next generation of leaders who will shape our industry.

The tournament is designed for golfers of all skill levels, making it a perfect opportunity to bring clients, partners, and colleagues together in a relaxed and engaging setting.
At Northwest Playground, we believe in building community through play. This tournament is a natural extension of that mission, creating an environment where relationships grow, ideas are shared, and our collective impact is strengthened.
We are excited to establish this event as an annual tradition that unites the parks and recreation community while creating meaningful opportunities to give back.
In addition to player registrations, we are actively seeking partners to support the event through sponsorships, including:
Sponsorship offers valuable visibility with parks and recreation leaders, municipalities, school districts, and industry professionals from across the region while supporting a meaningful cause.
