CAHIP NorCal Kicks off the New Year With Cornhole Tournament and Chili Cook-Off

Rancho Cordova, CA — January 16, 2026

CAHIP NorCal (California Association of Health Insurance Professionals, Northern California) kicked off its 2026 event calendar with a strong start, hosting its annual Vanguard Cornhole Tournament alongside the much-anticipated return of its chili cook-off at LeFive Indoor Soccer on January 15. The event welcomed 75 attendees for an afternoon of friendly competition, networking, and community connection.

The chili cook-off featured eight unique submissions, marking the return of a beloved CAHIP NorCal tradition. Rebecca Overstreet of TEKsystems earned first place for her standout chili.

“I got this recipe from someone who said it had won multiple chili cook-offs, but I didn’t know if it would win this one. I heard I was up against a multi-year chili champion,” said Overstreet.

Second place went to Marissa Smith of Dickerson Insurance Services, and third place went to Brad Davis of WSR Insurance.

On the cornhole courts, competition was fierce as teams battled for top honors. First place went to Andy Fullerton of Eureka Insurance Solutions and Sean Donalley of Sutter Health Plan. Curtis Tuttle and Matt Christenson representing Amwins Connect took home second place, and third place went to Jeremiah Lopez and Alex Trujillo from Insperity.

The annual Vanguard Cornhole Tournament continues to be a signature CAHIP NorCal event, bringing together insurance professionals for networking, camaraderie, and friendly rivalry. As CAHIP NorCal’s first event of the year, this tournament and chili cook-off set a positive tone for the months ahead.
