What better way to knock off the winter blues, wake from hibernation and loosen your frigid muscles than with two great cornhole outings? The 2024 season of the Margate Cornhole League, sponsored by The Silva Group at OCF Realty, kicks off on Sunday February 25 with the indoor Winter Classic Tournament hosted by the Milton and Betty Katz Jewish Community Center. Players can register in advance at margatehasmore.com or in person at the JCC beginning at 11:15am, play begins at noon.
