Default Jeep Poker Run - Raleigh, NC

OK . . . The Poker Run is set for Saturday, August 28th!!!!!

Registration will begin at 11 a.m. at Locked and Loaded Grill on Hwy. 70 in Garner, NC. Registration will be $10.00 per person for those participating in the Poker hand. Upon registration, you will draw your first card.

We will then proceed in a Top less/Door less convoy at approximately 12 noon to our first destination at 4Wheel parts on Glenwood Ave. At this stop, There will be a few items raffled off. I believe these items will be a Hi-lift Jack and recovery straps. Additionally, there will be an RTI ramp and of course a rock pile for those who want to play. I believe they now have a short trail cut in the woods out back for those who would like some pin-striping.
At 4wheel Parts, you receive Two more cards.

We will then head over to Observation deck at RDU Intl. Airport. This should be a cool stop from where we should have some great photo opportunities of all the Jeeps in the parking lot and I think the kids will enjoy seeing all the planes. You will receive your fourth card at this stop.

After we have had our share of activities we will return to Locked and Loaded Grill and get your final card. The Best and Worst Poker hands will share 100% of the money collected at registration.

Locked and Loaded Grill has graciously offered to provide FREE Hot dogs and sides to all registered guests and we will also raffle off a few Brand New design Locked and Loaded Grill T-shirts. This place ROCKS!

Sorry for the short notice but I think this turn out may be even better than the "Go Topless Day" we did in May. Tell all your friends. This is open to all Jeeps. Yes....... compass', Cherokee's and Liberty's are welcome. Good luck taking those tops and doors off though!

I hope to see you all there!


Regards,
ShawnJ

Far be it from me to pass on an opportunity to drink a cold .

I initially wanted to do several bars on the route but alot of people are bringing children and drinking and driving is not so cool. Not that I am against a quick one at O'Malley's . . Actually it sounds like a good idea.

In planning, I wanted to keep it family oriented.

Now, when we get back to Locked & Loaded it's ON!
