Cornhole as a Fundraiser
Seven simple reasons it's better than a golf outing.
- Cornhole is fun and anyone can play from eight to eighty. Golf is fun but not nearly as easy to play.
- Cornhole is easy to set up anywhere - inside / outside - it can be played year around - on the beach, in the grass, on a basketball court. Golf can't be played anywhere but on a golf course.
- Cornhole is cheap to set up and start playing - all you need are some boards, bags and someone to play with. Golf can be expensive both greens fees and equipment. The money saved by not having to rent a course goes straight to the bottom line for the charity or cause.
- Cornhole is social, large crowds gather and play together. Golf you go off in your foursome and you see nobody else until you return 5 hours later
- A cornhole outing provides much more exposure for sponsors than a golf outing. This makes it easier to bring in sponsorship revenue.
- A cornhole outing provides a better platform for a silent auction or live auction should you choose to add one to the event.
- A cornhole outing provides a much larger opportunity for player participation than a golf outing.
I'm certain I've missed a few reasons why a cornhole outing is a better fundraising opportunity than a golf outing but these seven points are good enough to make my case.
So if you're looking for something a little different than the same old golf outing to raise money for your charity, I suggest you get out there and start "Pitching for Your Cause".
Game ON!
