2019 Poker Ride Report
33 riders attended our Annual Poker Ride on Sunday April 28, 2019. Funds were raised through the sale of 80 poker hands and entry fees for the 12 participants of the Trail Class.
A special thanks to Adrianna Hamm who judged the Trail Class and came up with a very creative course.
Thank-you to the CRD Parks for allowing us to host this great event and for clearing a lot of overgrown trails the week before the ride.
Thank-you to the 2019 Sponsors
