2024 Lerner & Rowe Cornhole Tournament

Record-Breaking Year for Lerner & Rowe’s Annual Cornhole Tournament

Our 4th Annual Cornhole Tournament was a resounding success!

Arianna Baiz, Outreach Director for Lerner & Rowe’s Northwest Indiana and Chicagoland law firms, enthusiastically shared the following news about the tournament:

“Our 4th Annual Lerner & Rowe Gives Back Cornhole Tournament in Crown Point, Indiana raised over $60,000 for local communities in Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana. We could not have asked for a better event as we continue to grow our annual fundraiser. 

Community members from near and far gathered together for a day of fun-filled friendly competition that simultaneously helped raise funds for our non-profit foundation. 

We are thrilled to have doubled the amount of funds raised from 2023 and proud to say 100% goes back into the community. Thank you to our sponsors, vendors, players, and volunteers that contributed to the extraordinary success of this year’s event!”
