On Wednesday, in gymnasiums across the province, celebrations took place to mark the 75th anniversary of OFSAA as well as "OFSAA Day."
OFSAA which stands for Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations is a federation of 18 regional athletic associations spread across the province.
This year's focus was "participation," and at Eastview secondary school, students did just that by competing in a friendly, inclusive cornhole tournament.
All cornhole boards were constructed by the woodworking students as a way to get everyone involved.
