The Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation is proud to announce the success of its first-ever Pickleball Tournament Fundraiser, held on Saturday, February 28, 2026, at Pickleplex Social Club.

The event welcomed nearly 80 players across multiple divisions and drew strong community support throughout the day.

Thanks to the generosity of participants, sponsors, volunteers, and attendees, the tournament raised $63,497.59 net for multiple new ECG machines and the Emerge Stronger Campaign for the Trenton Memorial Hospital.

These machines will help clinicians quickly detect heart conditions and provide better care for patients.

The Foundation extends its sincere appreciation to Lorraine O’Quinn for leading this initiative, along with our sponsors, donors, players, volunteers, DJ Leo Phillips and everyone who helped make the event possible.

“I am deeply moved by the generosity and support of our community at the pickleball tournament benefiting TMHF’s ECG machines,” stated O’Quinn.

We connected, had fun, and came together for such an important purpose, bringing hope, healing, and safety to those in need.

“Personally, an ECG machine detected a heart issue for me in 2019, and I am forever grateful. Together, we are making a real difference.”

The Foundation would also like to recognize the tournament’s gold medal winners across all divisions:

Mixed Doubles (3.49 and under): Emily and Ian
Mixed Doubles (3.5+): Mike and Kelli
Men’s Doubles (3.49 and under): Kris and Austin
Men’s Doubles (3.5+): Mike and Andrew
Women’s Doubles (3.49 and under): Donna and Debby
Women’s Doubles (3.5+): Emily and Valeria
