Description

Cornhole Tournament to raise funds & awareness for the Angelman Syndrome Foundation and our local AS Clinic at Children's Hospital Colorado! Angelman Syndrome (AS) is a neurological disorder that affects 1 in 15,000 live births. It is caused by a deletion or mutation on chromosome 15. People with AS suffer with profound developmental delays, problems with motor control and balance, life-threatening seizures, lack of sleep, feeding issues and typically do not develop functional speech. They require life long care and intense therapies. The research team through Angelman Syndrome Foundation (ASF) is one of the fastest, result-finding medical research groups world-wide. AS has been cured in mice and scientists are confident a cure will be reached in our lifetime! The Quinncess Squad and Team Tyler have partnered with Colorado Cornhole Connection to host our 3rd annual benefit Cornhole Tournament. In the first two years, we raised nearly $30,000! Our goal this year is to raise a combined total of $50,000. Quinn, age 8, loves music, swimming, trampolines, pranks and her family. She was diagnosed with Angelman Syndrome (AS) when she was 19 months old. Tyler is 21 years old and was diagnosed with AS at 16 months. Tyler is very social and has the best sense of humor. He loves to travel, and ride in anything that moves. He will always greet you with the most amazing smile!
