The event welcomed players of all abilities to the Everest Convention Centre for a day of friendly competition and fundraising.
After round-robin play, 28 teams of two were split into two brackets based on ability and squared off in double-elimination play. Andrew Nelson and Ty Lucio of Floor Baggers took home the trophy and cash prize of $500 for the Best of the Best bracket, while Kristy Nelson and Brandon Dionne of Half Decent won the $250 cash prize in the Best of the Rest bracket.
“We are so grateful for all of the teams who came out to support this first-time event, as well as all of the donors and sponsors who made Cornhole for Hospice such a success,” Ginny Hawken, special events chair for the C-K Hospice Foundation, said in a media release.
The event also included a 50/50 raffle with a jackpot of $3,185.
Tournament play was organized by the local cornhole league, CK Dirty Birds, run by Darryl Lucio and Brett Castein.
