Sunday September 26, 2010 was PBA Local 230’s Special Olympics Motorcycle Poker Run. We had 143 bikes and raised over $7,000 for the Special Olympics! This has been our most successful event to date, thanks to supporters like you. We would like to congratulate Gary Negra from Shoreprint Solutions who took the top prize with a winning poker hand of 4 Queens. Gary walked away with a West Marine 72 Quart cooler, loaded with Target gift cards, Martel’s dinner gift card, crafted beer from Lenape Liquors and other goodies from Investor’s Savings Bank and Bel-Ray Lubricants. There were also a lot of other great prize giveaways and the 50/50 was $182.00.
We have to thank VFW Post #8867 for hosting the event. We cannot forget Nationwide Imaging, Shore Point Distributors, ShopRite and Entenmann’s Bakery Outlet. Without these supporters, we would all have been hungry and thirsty.
Check out some of the pictures from Sunday and we will see you next year!
Thank you
