My name is Robert Benoit I live in Madison, Ms. I have been looking into putting together a Memorial Poker Run for Carey Downs and Jeremie Floyd at the Lake Pickwick area. I have spoken to Marsha who in turned talked to David Woods and they are in favor of it. With that being said I am looking for EVERYTHING, I need Organizers, Volunteers, Sponsors, Idea People, Participants ect and because I am located 4 hours from Pickwick I really need some local support also. I have heard from people within the Tennessee Powerboat Club, SkaterMike82, and payuppsucker . I now need your help if you are able, so that we can pull this off in a short period of time. My contact info is:

I have never tried to organize a Poker run and if it was left to my own devices it would never happen, but with your help we can do it. I will be going up to Pickwick this weekend to start to lay the groundwork and determining a date to hold the event. Please call or email if there's anything YOU can do, also KEEP THIS THREAD ON PAGE 1 BY POSTING SO EVERYONE CAN SEE.

Your kidding me 60 views and not one post?

Just got a call from the Editor of Speed on the Water, look for something in the next few days. When I get it i'll post it.

Are you planning on talking to David this weekend? If so I'm sure he can give some direction.

I plan on talking to David tomorrow and then go to Pickwick Saturday.

Was contacted by Matt Trulio of Speed On The Water. I want to thank Matt for taking the time and effort to help get the word out to everyone. There will be a little article coming out and as soon as I get it I will post it.

How far are you from Pickwick? Hopefully we can meet up soon

I am willing to participate. I dont know if there is much I can do from north alabama but if you do need a hand give me a shout. I have not been to pickwick but doesnt mean I cant find my way up there.

Thanks, If your in North Alabama then you are right there can't be more than an hour or so away and your missing out on a great area. As far as participating I and everyone else appreciates anything you can offer, I will keep you and everyone informed.

I'm just under two hours from Pickwick. I'm not sure about my plans for this weekend but maybe I can ride up there. I'd like to hear what DW has to say anyway. I feel like he'll be a big help.
