The 9th Annual Poker Run

was once again a resounding success!!!

Thanks to everyone’s combined efforts, we raised enough money to give the Ocala Outdoor Adventure Camp an even larger donation than last year! We were also able to increase our cash prize for the best Poker Hand to $250.00 PLUS give out four other cash prizes as well!

Mr. Paul Huffman of Orlando was the winner of the Malibu Pro Explorer Kayak package. Although not present at the drawing, he excitedly and happily took delivery the very next day !!!

We would like to thank everyone for their participation including the volunteers who did the work necessary to make this event come together and function so smoothly.

Of course this event could not have been successful without the involvement of all you paddlers who participated, so many thanks to each of you.

We would also like to offer our sincerest thanks to those vendors and individuals who donated the numerous quality prizes we were able to give away.
