Nothing better than throwing some bags on a nice summer day!

Probably my favorite thing to do on a beautiful Sunday afternoon in the summertime, is to play bean bags! A little BBQ, some good friends and possibly a few adult beverages is a great way to kick back on the weekend.

This game is super easy to play and doesn't require very much atheletic ability, unless throwing things is a problem for you. Seriously, it's a fun and easy activity for any age.

Get Ready to "Toss for a Cause"
