Default 4th annual Lake George Fall Poker Run

I would like to take this time to invite everyone to our 4th annual Poker Run on Lake George in Upstate NY. on Saturday October 8th. The run will be about 60-70 miles long and the cost will be $125.00 per hand. More details will follow

The run is used as a fund raiser to benefit " Zippys crusade for kids" in the name of a great friend to alot of us who died last year, Byron Pritchett. Greg Zippadelli, who is the crew chief for Tony Stewart, raises money thru his foundation for underprivilged children. Last year, our Poker Run raised $2800.00 dollars for the foundation and Gregs annual Snowmobile Pokerrun and auction raised over $100,000. Greg matched our donation and together we sent a local child who was handicapped to a special camp for the entire summer !!( More info can be found on his website)

Please make your plans to join us for a great run and an even better party after the run, all for a great cause


Also, I am currently looking for raffle prizes and sponsership to help underwrite the costs of this event. Please contact me if you are interested in helping out

Thanks you

By the way, Noise and speed are usually NOT a problem this time of year if we are respectful to our Lakeside Neighbors

The starting spot will be the Algonquin Restaraunt in Bolton Landing.

Registration will be from 11:30 -12:30

Drivers meeting at 12:45

Start will be at 1:00 pm from the Algonquin

Price is $125.00 which includes driver and 1 crew member. Each additional crew member is $20.00

We will run about 70 miles. All card stops will be taken on the run with no getting out of the boat. We will stop at the View Restaraunt at the north end of the Lake for a short break. Rafting will be nessesary as docking is limited. From the View we will proceed to The Boathouse Restaraunt to turn in your cards and enjoy a buffett style dinner and the awards party. There will be many raffles and a silent auction during the party to help raise additional money for the two funds.

Feel free to contact me with any additional questions you might have
