The Tom & Soni Sheehan Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville will hold its eighth annual Cornhole Tournament on Friday, Aug. 4, presented by the McGowan Insurance Group and West Bend Mutual Insurance. Check-in will begin at 11:30 a.m. with the first round of play starting at 12:30 p.m. at Forest Park, Shelter No. 1.

The afternoon will consist of a three-game guarantee to include a double-elimination tournament and a “toilet bowl” bracket. Competitive play will culminate in a championship game paying out cash prizes to first and second place. Each participant will receive a commemorative tank top, sponsored by HMC Screen Printing, and an entry into a door prize drawing. All players are invited to bring their own adult beverages and multiple silent auction packages will be offered.

“Last year, over 60 teams competed in the event to support our youth programs,” BGCN Community Center Director Tony Eslamirad said. “Those who attend not only have the opportunity to network and relax on a Friday afternoon under the shade of Forest Park, but they are making a difference in the lives of thousands of local kids that utilize the Club’s services. In the past seven years, the event has raised over $65,000 to support affordable after school programs for our local Club Kids.”

The registration fee per team of two will be $80 with all proceeds benefiting the Tom & Soni Sheehan Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville. Teams may register online at bgcni.org.
