WE ARE STILL HAVING THE POKER RUN FOR THOSE INTERESTED.We are going to set up on Conneticut Hill, we are still checking Bull Hill and Little Lake, so ask when you register where we were able to set up cans. The hill has 3-5 inches of snow with an ice base (nice). In the surrounding areas the fields are frozen and the snow is scarce, so we are asking as many people as possible to trailer to the club to save on your equipment. So come in “short track” mode and have some fun, and stay for the Members Party afterwards.
Some of the details are:
*All of the Poker Runs are also food drives with proceeds going to local Food Banks
*Saturday, February 21st, 2009, 10 am until 4ish, with the winner announced around 4:30 (you are welcome to ride earlier and later)
*Registration will be upstairs, come in through the door on the new deck
*Registration Fee: 1 hand for $10 plus can of food, 2 hands for $20 plus can of food, 3 hands for $25 plus can of food, bring as many cans of food as you like (you can substitute a dollar or more for a can of food)
*Cans of Poker chips will be placed all over our trail system, and could include/but not limited to: Little Lake Inn, Bull Hill, Radio Tower Road, etc...(we are still checking on these, so ask in the morning when you register.)
*Hamburgers, hot dogs, chili, beverages, and other assorted snacks will be available for purchase
*There will be snowmobile videos playing on the tv upstairs at the clubhouse (hopefully. if the tv isn't frozen!)
**Remember, ALL sleds should have: Current Registration, Insurance, Driver with a helmet, A working headlight, Drivers between the ages of 10 years old and 17 years old MUST have a Snowmobile Safety Certificate or card(have taken the snowmobile safety course) to be legal in NYS
This is a Family event, so leave the "show boating" home, (or at least do it in the fields away from people, if you really must.LOL) we do not want any one getting hurt because of stupidity!!!
The Members Party will follow the Poker Run around 6ish. The price is $5 or a dish to pass. The club will provide ham and roasted turkey, along with the same beverages we have provided in the past. I saw the sign up sheet, and there is a lot of good food coming. There will also be a bon-fire, raffles including; “White Elephant”, 50/50, door prizes, and I think silent auctions.
If you have any questions e-mail them to me(jimbow1969@wmconnect.com) and I will try to answer them as soon as I can. Thanks, and hope to see you there.
