Wilkie & District Museum hosting Poker Rally

The Wilkie & District Museum is hosting another Poker Rally on Sunday, July 25th.

What is a Poker rally you ask? Director of PR Phil Heilman explains.

“It is essentially a motorcycle rally but with a Poker mixed in. Each stop on the designated route will have a person with a deck of cards. Each rider cuts a card and said card is written on a paper, and at the end, based on a points system (Ace low), a winner is determined.”

Riders have five stops, including starting point, to draw their five cards.

Along side the rally, there will be a BBQ for the public for both dinner (11:30am to 1pm) and supper (starting at 3pm). A ongoing 50/50 that day will also be happening.

This time, there will also be a kids pedal bike rally. Children can bring their decorated bicycles and ride around town at no cost and receive a free hotdog.

Registration for the Poker Rally begins at 12:30pm at the Ed Elder memorial building located on the museum grounds along 1st Street east. Cost for Riding is $20.00 with a meal included.

A meal for the public will be $10.00.
