Cruise to

PGIslanders Boat Poker Run

Sunday, February 5, 2023

On February 5, the PGIslanders will hold a Boat Poker Run. Last year’s event was a big success. This is not a race, and all sizes of boats are welcome. For those that have never participated in a poker run, you will use your boat to visit pre-determined docks in Punta Gorda Isles and pick up a playing card at each stop. In the evening, we’ll have a dinner and after-party at the PGICA where you’ll bring your cards and see how good a poker hand you have. The best hands win!

To make this event a success, we need your help with the following:

  1. Members with empty dock space on or near the Rim Canal or Colony Point Drive Canal for participating boats to visit.
  2. Above members need to be at their docks to distribute cards to participating boats.
  3. Help with set up and take down at PGICA.

Details will follow to participants. The collection of cards, using your boat, will be from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm on February 5. A potluck BYOB dinner will follow at the PGICA at 6:00 pm. PGIslanders and their guests are welcome, and you can have multiple participants on a boat. Each person that pays the $10 entry fee will receive a playing card at each dock. Members handing out cards are also eligible to collect a hand if they pay the entry fee.

If you wish to participate and/or volunteer, please reply to this email or contact Tyler Swanson at swansontyler7@gmail.com or (716) 664-1054.
