WPCNHF’s Sixth Semi-Annual Cornhole Tournament was held on April 6, 2019 at The Cornerstone at Tonidale. This double elimination tournament was managed by Steel City Cornhole. Warm up and registration started at 1:00pm and the tournament began at 2:00pm. Each participant received an event t-shirt and each participant over 21 years received a drink ticket.
It was a full house as Nine Competitive Teams and 23 Social Teams competed for the first place prize in their division. A Chinese Auction was held and we raffled off some great items including an overnight stay at the Mountaineer Grande Hotel, a private escape room for eight people, a variety of amusement center and park tickets, and tickets to the Washington Wild Things and the Altoona Curve.
Congratulations to the winners of the Cornhole Tournament!
