Hey guys, we are putting together a July 2nd Poker Run at Kentucky Lake, we are about 1 hr and 40 minutes North West of Nashville, and if you follow I-24 it puts you within 5 minutes form the marina. We plan on getting the local volunteer fire department to break out the giant BBQ cooker, and have a great weekend.
We are raising money for local childrenÂ’s home, they take kids in when the state has stepped in and removed a kid from a home, and provide a "boys home" type environment. The state will provide for these kids basic treatment and basic living cost, but no more. My company provides a couple of things for them a year, at Christmas we put on a giant Christmas Party, in the summer we try and take them to a titans game or something in St Louis. To pay for that we have events through out the year. This will be the first year we have a poker run, so it will be a learning year, but we will still have a blast, raise some money, and generally just enjoy life.
So, you are all invited, if you are interested please let me know, we will need boaters of course, but also volunteers to do all kinds of things like be stationed at the marinas, check in/out, and maybe take the kids out on the boats (if we can get permission, there are some state restrictions we have to work with).
There will be a fee to participate, and trophies for ugliest, prettiest, fastest, slowest, etc, etc, etcÂ… Also there will be lots of auxiliary prizes from the business community.
Let me know what you think.........
