30 | Four Seasons Hemet Herald | FEBRUARY 2026 |
Many thanks to
George and Beth Hice,
the founders of the Four
Seasons Cornhole Club.
They had a dream and
brought it to fruition,
putting together the
organization, the layout,
and the purchase of
equipment. George, a large
man with an even larger
personality, would yell at
us, we would yell back, and Beth would mediate. But we as a group
can only appreciate all that George and Beth have contributed to the
enjoyment of meeting each week to laugh and play cornhole. They
are retiring from the management of the Cornhole Club and will be
missed.
Cornhole play meets every Wednesday morning at 9 am. During
the spring and summer months we meet once a month in the late
afternoons for C & C, "cornhole and cocktails."
Who plays cornhole? Any person can play cornhole. People say
that if you can toss underhand a plastic bag of dog poop 25 feet, you
can play corn hole. Those same people will tell you, if you can toss
underhand a plastic bag of dog poop 25 feet and hit a two-foot by
four-foot wood plank… that is called practicing, and practicing is
strictly against the Four Seasons Amateur Code of Conduct.
The game of cornhole is a great sport and offers many ancillary
benefits, such as:
• Hand and eye coordination: you do have to toss a bag underhand
to a target 25 feet from you
• Balance: again, tossing a bag underhanded requires a balanced
base, and at least a pair of flip-flops on your feet
• Central core exercise: you need to bend over and pick up the
bags
• Fork to mouth coordination: compliments hand and eye
coordination
• Freely swear when things go right (or wrong)
• Cool, friendly people: know how to gather and party
• No complaining allowed zone
• Unlimited pleading
• Endless "unbelievable"
• Wednesday Bistro breakfast
Compete for an hour each session and reap the benefits!
