I have an update regarding the Skolfield Cornhole Tournament. While the organizers of this event will be donating proceeds to Gorham Project Graduation, the event is not directly affiliated with the Gorham School Department. As such, they will be making their own decision regarding whether the event is canceled due to weather. I would direct you to Skolfield Sports Performance for more information and updates regarding this event.
