About Our Company
We are a mother-in-law and daughter team who share a love for travel, connection, and of course, pickleball. What started as a shared passion quickly turned into a dream: creating retreats where people can come together, play the game we all love, and leave with new friends and lasting memories.
​
With experience in organizing events, we know how important the details are. But more than anything, we want to make sure every guest feels like part of our extended family. Whether you join us for the pickleball, the travel, the activities, or simply the community, our goal is to create a space where connections grow and memories are made.
​
We’re excited to welcome you, share the court with you, and build something special together, one retreat at a time.
Welcome to our pickleball retreat family!
Roxy Greenwood
CEO & Founder
My name is Roxy Greenwood, and I’m the founder of Sun & Summit Pickleball, where pickleball passion meets adventure and community.
​
With 20 years of experience in purchasing and sales, I’ve had the privilege of traveling the world for work, learning from new cultures, savoring unique foods, and meeting wonderful people everywhere I go. Over time, I discovered that my true passion is crafting memorable experiences and helping others enjoy the journey as much as the destination.
​
As a mom to an energetic boy, I know the joy and chaos of family life, and how important it is to find time for fun, relaxation, and adventure. My husband and I have explored many corners of the globe together and believe that each new place brings a chance to learn, grow, and connect, with others and ourselves.
​
Pickleball has quickly become one of my favorite ways to bring people together, get active, and have fun. I started Sun & Summit Pickleball Retreats to share my love of travel, adventure, and connection with people of all skill levels. Whether you’re a pickleball enthusiast or just discovering the game, I invite you to join us for unforgettable retreats filled with great play, beautiful locations, and lasting friendships.
​
Come discover amazing places, enjoy new experiences, and make incredible memories, on and off the court. I can’t wait to meet you!
Cheryl Jared
Assistant Coordinator
Hi, I’m Cheryl Jared, a passionate pickleball enthusiast. My journey into racquet sports began in my early 20s when I taught myself to play tennis, often bringing my three young children along to the courts. I enjoyed tennis for over two decades before taking a ten-year detour into golf, eventually returning to the sport I loved.
​
Then I discovered pickleball, a game that quickly captured my heart. Within just three months of playing, my husband and I painted lines in our cul-de-sac to create our own court. I found the transition from tennis to pickleball surprisingly smooth once I adjusted to the shorter paddle and the lower bounce of the ball.
​
What I love most about pickleball is how it combines social connection with competitive play. I've met amazing people of all ages and formed lasting friendships through the game. It's a sport that truly brings generations together, kids, parents, and grandparents alike.
​
I’m also part of a community committee that organizes an annual tournament, attracting players from multiple states. I never expected pickleball to match the cardio of tennis, but it absolutely does, and it’s just as rewarding. I find great joy in introducing others to the game and watching them grow and improve.
