Join the Roby Family of Companies and Harris Teeter for the 16 th annual Pitchin’ for Wishes Cornhole Tournament benefiting Make-A-Wish(r) Central & Western NC. Bags will fly Saturday, November 2, 2024 at Freedom Park.

Since 2008, the Roby Family of Companies has been building a better community through the success of this tournament, a two-time Guinness World Record setting event. Over the last 16 years, thanks to generous sponsors, donors and players, the event has raised over $2.7 million for Make-A-Wish(r) Central & Western NC and other local charities. And we have no plans to slow down. We’re on a mission to raise another $300,000 in 2024 alone!

All money raised will go directly to Make-A-Wish(r) Central & Western NC to help grant the wishes of children with critical illnesses in our local community. If we hit our $300,000 fundraising goal, the organization will be able to grant the wishes of 40 deserving kids right here in our local community.

The tournament features an NCAA bracket style cornhole competition, as well as food, drinks, music, appearances by local mascots, kids’ activities and more. In 2023, 128 teams competed in the tournament as hundreds of spectators cheered them on.
