Atascadero's 8th annual Showdown Cornhole Tournament took place on Saturday and Sunday at the Sunken Gardens.

Organizers from Atascadero Knights of Columbus say the event is a fundraiser for the North County Adaptive Sports and Recreation Program and Atascadero Boy Scout Troop 51.

"It's just a bunch of good people, good sport, and everybody enjoys each other. Everybody gets along. And, when we do it for a benefit or a charity, [it] makes it even better," Sean Keller, the event coordinator, said.

Community members from across the county-- including Orcutt resident Nicolle Renner—came to take part in the fundraiser on Sunday.

"The Sunken Gardens is, like, the most beautiful atmosphere to play," Renner said. "The weather's perfect. [...] It's an amazing thing to do."

At the end of the tournament, prizes and trophies were handed out to the winners of the two-day event.
