Bigger Picture recording artist Craig Campbell‘s 2nd annual Celebrity Cornhole Challenge will take place Tuesday, June 3 at the corner of Demonbreun and 3rd Ave. S. in downtown Nashville. Sponsored by McPherson Guitars, the challenge will begin at 4 p.m. CT. Campbell will be joined by other artists including Jerrod Niemann and labelmates Blackjack Billy to raise money for T.J.

“My father passed away at the age of 36 from the disease,” says Campbell. “Come out during this year’s CMA Fest to have a fun time in support of a great cause!” Tickets will be available beginning in April and this year fans will be able to participate in the Cornhole tournament alongside the artists.
