Poker Run Highlights
KAPOA and the Valley Gazette joined up to produce the first SFMH Foundation Charity Annual Poker Run. Near the end of July, approximately thirty boats picked up cards from docks ranging from Barry’s Bay, down through Kamaniskeg, past Blackfish Bay, then past Combermere under the bridge down to Negeek Lake in an effort to build the best poker hand. Boats returned to the Wilson residence where they enjoyed demos of wake surfing and wakeboard rail riding, hamburgers, and socializing with neighbours. The winning boat received prizes over $500. At the end of the day the Poker Run contributed over $6,000 to the hospital assisting in a small way to their acquiring two pieces of digital x-ray equipment, one portable the other fixed. Mark Lyon and Ed Ragan will be co-chairing the 2014 Poker Run toward its goal of $8,000 so hold Saturday July 26, 2014 open for a great day.
