    Cornhole & Ping Pong- *Start date based on interest*

    The Senior Center has custom Cornhole Boards!

    Cornhole (Bean Bag Toss) is a game in which players take turns throwing bean bags at a raised platform (board) with a hole in the far end.  A bag in the hole scores 3 points, while one on the board scores 1 point.  Cornhole can be played as singles, doubles or teams.

    Play continues until a team or player reaches or exceeds the score of 21.  Hope you join us!

    Interested in playing Ping Pong?  The Senior Center has a Ping Pong table which will be set up during Cornhole for people wanting to play.  Play both games if interested!  Beginners Welcome!

    Please call Hilary if you are interested. (860) 889-5960.
