Bag It for a Cause: United Way’s First ‘Bean Bag Benefit’ Lands at Block 34
Teams will toss for local impact as Payne County’s United Way pushes toward its $1.25 million fundraising goal.
UPDATE: The City of Stillwater and the United Way of Payne County have postponed the fundraising event to April 25, 2026, due to short notice and lack of signups.
United Way of Payne County is hosting its first-ever “Bean Bag Benefit” at Block 34 on Friday, Nov. 7, to support partner nonprofits. The tournament consists of teams of two in a double-elimination bracket. Check-in begins at 11:30 a.m. for teams, and the tournament starts at 1 p.m.
The entry fee of $100 per team directly supports United Way’s active campaign. Teams will first play a few pool-play games to decide seeding for the final bracket. Various local food trucks will also be at the event for guests to have a quick bite before or after the games.
