Yesterday was the day of our service learning project. The past week consisted of a lot of last minute preparations and and hustling around to get everything picked up and finalized. Finally, after weeks of preparing we were able to enjoy the fruits of our labor and play some corn hole for a good cause. We had beautiful weather for this event with partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the middle to upper 50's. The turn out wasn't bad considering a few conflicting events that day, including Boiler Blast which involved a majority of our original turnout. We did try to compensate for this minor set back by moving back to original time of 2 o'clock to 3 o'clock. This did help and brought a few people that said they wouldn't be able to attend because of Boiler Blast.
The event was a lot of fun and everyone I talked to had a great time. In addition to corn hole, we had plenty of drinks in hot dogs, and rocking tunes. The complete tournament consisted of 12 teams and a double elimination bracket. The winning team consisted of Ben and Amnie, friends of Gary's. Everyone was really surprised by the dominant performance of Amnie. She was by far the most consistent thrower throughout the afternoon.
