PLAYER PRE-REGISTRATION OPEN!

This is the email you've all been waiting for!  SILA invites you to join us for a night of FUNdraising!

Whether you all it Cornhole, bean bag toss, baggo, or bags it is time to roll up your sleeves for a friendly competition! 

SILA is hosting a charity cornhole tournament at the annual conference to benefit the SILA Foundation. The tournament will be held onsite at the conference hotel Tuesday after the conference sessions.  We still start promptly at 5:00. The game will feature brackets where only the best team moves to the next round. Stop by for a drink and bite while enjoying the CORNAMENT festivities and mingling with other attendees to help raise money for the Foundation's scholarship program.  Entry includes one drink ticket and light snacks.  

Player awards include:  Champions, 2nd Place, Best Team Name and Most Team Spirit. 

We allow player pre-registration for this VERY popular conference event!  Spectator and player registration will continue in-person during the SILA Conference, be sure to stop by the SILA Foundation table located in the Exhibitor Hall (Eventide).
