The Bucket Game – Who Needs Cornhole?

This is my first attempt at putting a non-specific yet detailed plan to create a Bucket Game that is better than Cornhole. It is smaller, lighter and can be played many different ways. The kids seemed to like it a the Carnival fundraiser. If you like this, then I can perhaps put more wood projects…
