time to meet with the members and

Oregon Coast Military Museum hosts Rhody Days Poker Run
Today, May 15, the Ore-
gon Coast Military Museum
is hosting a first-time poker
run for Rhody Days to ben-
efit Florence area nonprof-
its who have struggled with
the pandemic shut down of
the past year. The commit-
tee, headed by Gary Cargill
of Florence in Bloom, is co-
ordinating the event with
the help of Rods n’ Rhodies
Inc., the Rhody Cruisers and
Jeeps R Us in Florence.
“Just like the commercial
business community, the
nonprofit community has
struggled financially, and
this will provide at least some
minimal relief for them, as
well as bring back a little nor-
mality to our community on
Rhody Days,” Cargill said.
In addition to the Oregon
Coast Military Museum,
participating nonprofits in-
clude Florence Food Share,
Florence Area Humane Soci-
ety, Florence Habitat for Hu-
manity and the Crossroads
Church Backpack for Kids
program.
“The poker run will be an
open format where all types
of vehicles can participate
such as classics, hot rods,
motorcycles, Jeeps — or sim-
ply anyone who wants to en-
joy a day driving around the
Florence area and helping
our local nonprofits,” Cargill
said.
Registration will take
place at Three Rivers Casino
Resort starting at 9 a.m. on
