Pirates of Lanier-Castaway Poker Run
September 19, 2009
We want to gratefully thank each and every one of you for
helping us make our Castaways Poker Run on Lake Lanier a great success.
We were so impressed with the level of participation, the fantastic costumes and
wonderfully decorated boats that entered the event. Your generosity will be
heartfelt by the children that we are helping.
The marinas, sponsors and volunteers also need a big hand as well as they
graciously donated products, facilities, time and money to the event.
Many people asked if we would do the event again. We want to assure you that we
will do so next year.
The $75,000 grand prize
winning poker hand was a full house, 3-7's and 2-9's. We are sorry to say that
we did not have a grand prize winning poker hand based on our tally.
The best poker hand ($500.00) was 5-8's
The second best poker hand ($200.00) was 5-3's
The third best poker hand ($100.00) was a full house 3-8's and 2-4's
And the worst poker hand ( Entry fee refund) was 7,4,Q,3,A
Again we want to thank all of you for joining in the event.
We will be posting pictures that we have on our web site.
Warmest Regards
