EUROPE

()

When: April 27, 2019 - 2 p.m. to 10 p.m.

Where: Grundschule Konken, 66871 Konken (15 min. From Ramstein Air Base, 20 min from Baumholder)

Why: The fastest growing sport in American is Cornhole, where you throw a 1lb corn seed filled sack toward a 4’x1’ platform with a 6” hole from 30’ away. Anyone age 9-75 can do it (my daughter plays (9) and my German neighbor Inge plays (75). It’s an opportunity to mostly stand, sometimes throw next to a person for an extended period of time and talk. When it’s a German and American there’s ample opportunity to talk and connect.

How: We will randomly pair a German player with an American player, they will paly at least 7 games as a team culminating in an elimination tournament.

Who: Anyone who wants to listen to music, eat, play cornhole and watch or learn about a pretty chill sport and most importantly ... meet some of our Germany hosts!
