Motorcycle Poker Run June 9
The Unions for Kids Motorcycle
Poker Run and Chili Cook-off, a bene-
fit for Doernbecher Children’s Hospi-
tal, will be held Saturday, June 9, at the
IBEW Local 48 Hall, 15937 NE Air-
port Way.
The poker run starts and finishes at
the hall. Registration is from 8:30 to 10
a.m. and costs $10. A pancake break-
fast will be available for participants.
The poker run itself is a scenic and
challenging 90-mile round-trip ride
with four checkpoints. Riders will re-
ceive a playing card at the IBEW hall
and one at each checkpoint. An option
of one extra (draw) card before the first
card and one extra (draw) card after the
last card will be available for $5 each.
Visa gift cards will be awarded to the
high and low poker hand.
The chili cook-off pits chefs from
the various trades. Chili will be sold and
customers will vote on their favorite.
Hot dogs, hamburgers and soda also
will be on sale.
A drawing for a 2012 Harley-David-
son “Big Blue” Heritage Softail Classic
motorcycle will take place at 4 p.m. In
commemoration of the event’s 10th an-
niversary, the bike will be autographed
by Willie G. Davidson, the company’s
senior vice president and grandson of
Harley-Davidson co-founder William
A. Davidson.
Tickets are still available for $10
each. Only 5,000 tickets will be sold.
Money also is raised through a silent
auction, a 50/50 raffle, and through a
program called “Hour of Help,”
whereby individuals donate one hour of
pay to the cause. Donations are tax de-
ductible.
All money raised is given to Doern-
becher Children’s Hospital. Since its in-
ception in 2003, the Poker Run has
raised $271,000.
