The United Way Centraide Windsor-Essex Chatham-Kent is hosting a cornhole tournament August 18th at the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 594 on Howard Avenue. The event is being hosted by the Retiree Volunteer Council and features prizes, music by DJ Struggz and more.
"It's a type of activity that most can participate in no matter the level," said Leilani Logronio, manager of labour programs and services. "What I've learned is that cornhole is a fast growing sport and is being considered as an Olympic sport one day."
Logronio says the event has a social swap format with everyone guaranteed four games. Participants will be randomly paired with a new partner each game creating a fun atmosphere.
Of course there is the fundraising side to the event. One player has already raised over $2,000 and will likely qualify for one of the incentive prizes, one of which is a Sprucewood Winery Experience for eight people.
Sign up for a good time for a good cause. Proceeds will benefit United Way's On Track to Success program.
