Overall wellness is again being featured this summer as we find ourselves in the throws of a cornhole competition.  What may have started out as a friendly game for some has become a serious rivalry for others.

Thank you all for participating in this summer’s cornhole tournament.  Congratulations to Josh and Barry for their perfect record and winning the tournament.
