Cornhole Tradition

As a Cincinnatian I take pride in traditions and values that are passed on between our generations. It’s almost honorable to be know as the city who originated the game of cornhole ( baggo, bean bag toss, corn toss).

Growing up with cornhole at every family outing and tournaments at every festival it’s almost second nature to own a cornhole set. Now that it is up and coming in many cities tournaments have become more nationally rather than locally. I was excited when I found a cornhole trophy that came from a Cincinnati company supporting a Cincinnati tradition.

It’s great to finally have a cornhole trophy I can present to the champion of the home town cornhole tournaments! All trophies are an honor to hold on to but this particular trophy makes me smile.

Cornhole is a great tradition I hope Cincinnati holds on to for a long time!

Fathers Day!

Trying to be the loving son that I am I decided to do something extra special for my dad this Father’s day. Usually we follow the norm and celebrate Father’s day by gathering the whole family together for a cook out. But this Father’s day is a little different because all the kids are out of the house and no one gets to visit with Dad as often as they use to.

Because we all miss dad unconditionally we decided to put our money together and purchase him something he can treasure and help remimnd him how much we truly appreciate everything he has done for us.

We went with purchasing a plaque and getting an image engraved on it. The plaque looking very sleek yet personalized, ended up being a beautiful cheery wood that matched all the cherry furniture in the house. We engraved a beautiful scripture along with an illustration of our family crest to create the custom-made feel.

Although the gift was very simple and affordable the meaning and thought made it worth a million bucks.
