JEFFERSONVILLE, Ohio — In a collaborative effort between Destination Outlets and the American Cornhole Organization, the top eight professional cornhole teams will be competing in the Pro Invitational Cornhole Tournament at the shopping mall’s location in Jeffersonville.

The event will occur on July 9 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and will have a live D.J., the Cincinnati Tap Truck, delicious food trucks, and amateur
cornhole for the any who wish to participate. Amateur team sign-ups will start at 9 a.m. with an entry fee of $20 per team.

Professional teams will compete for a grand prize of $7,500, and amateur teams will play for half the pot.

“We like to bring new and fun events to the area,” said Hannah Girton, Marketing Manager. “We are thrilled to bring a fan favorite, cornhole, to the mall. And it comes at an exciting time for Destination Outlets. We just announced the grand openings of Versona, Plum Natural Products, and Gizmo’s ToyLab; and we can’t wait for a bunch of other stores opening later this summer.”
