Eighteen years ago, we hosted our very first Borden Light Marina Charity Poker Run. It has been an honor to host this event with participants from near and far who dedicate their heart and soul to making this a fun event where thousands of dollars have been raised for both local and national organizations.
During registration, we will provide a full brunch buffet to all participants. This will replace the lunch stop in Newport and will allow more time for the after-party! Saturday night's dinner will also take place at Pier 52 along with the live auction and awards. There will be live music at both Pier 52 and The Tipsy Seagull!
LIFE JACKETS ARE MANDATORYWe look forward to seeing you!
