1st Annual FMAS Poker Run - Updated Rules!

Get ready to put on your poker faces!

Announcing the first annual FMAS Poker Run, on Saturday March 8th, 2014.

Whether you are a seasoned poker player, or you have no idea what a flush is, we would love to have you come out and have fun with us. No skills necessary - we promise!

Cost: FREE!

General Notes:

Must be a current FMAS member.
Each participate can only win 1 prize.
Family membership can have 2 participants (self, spouse or child). Single membership may only have 1 participant.
7 random store winners win $100 gift card
Grand prize winner wins $200 gift cards
We encourage members to carpool for this event.

Rules:

Poker run begins at noon at the first store
We will spend 30 minutes at the store, waiting for everyone to arrive
The BOD will hand out 1 playing card to any FMAS member (must present membership card or have proof of membership)
At 12:30, the group will leave the store, and travel to store #2
At Store #2, we will hand out poker cards again.
We will wait 30 minutes and then proceed to Store #3.
Repeat until everyone reaches Store #7.
At Store #7, we will hand out poker cards. We will wait 20 minutes to allow members to select their best hand.
Everyone writes their name on the front of each card.
As the BOD collects poker hands, we will keep the best hand to the side. All other hands will get distributed into piles based on which store they came from. After all hands are collected, the best hand will be
determined and that FMAS member wins the grand prize. We will then select a random card from each store pile to determine the winner of $100 gift card to that store.
Poker run concludes about 6PM
We are planning to all go out for pizza/Italian at The Sicilian Oven (http://www.thesicilianoven.com/) afterwards, and anyone who would like to join in is welcome!
