The 2013 Flyin' Poker Run

7/23/2013

0 Comments

 
     We started organizing another poker run. This one will benefit a great cause: The Girls in Flight Training academy in Vernon, Texas. The school provides free instruction for women who need to finish reaching their dream of flight. Click here for more information on the school and the altruistic people who manage it: http://www.girlsinflight.org/.
      The route starts at Wichita Valley Airport (F14), then to Kickapoo (CWC), Frederick to view the C047 and visit with the paratroopers (FDR), then to Vernon, home of the GIFT (F05), then return to F14 for lunch (included in entry fee) and prizes for best and worst poker hands. 
       Update: I found some photos of the event, which I post below. Also, The lunch included a lecture by John Boatright, titled, "You Gotta Know When to Hold 'Em."
