NORWICH – Norwich American Legion Post 189 will host a cornhole tournament at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, December 8 to raise money for the local branch of the Marine Toys-for-Tots Foundation ahead of the holiday season.

A registration fee of $10 a person will be charged to participants, and Norwich American Legion Post 189 Board President George Sarpriacone said 100 percent of proceeds will go towards the local Toys-for-Tots.

Tournament registrants will be accepted in advance as well as through the day of the event. To register or if you have any questions, call the post or Sarpriacone at (607) 334-9414 or (607) 859-2549.

In addition to the tournament, Sarpriacone said the legion will be raffling off a set of cornhole boards painted by Rick Hansen to a lucky individual.
