BurckhardDale Hollow Marketing Group, LLC8500 Hwy. 111, Suite 50BByrdstown, TN 38549(931) 864-8666Event Description: A Poker Run is about fun on and around Dale Hollow Lake. Each participant navigates the lake or the beautiful Tennessee and Kentucky roads around the lake by motorcycle or automobile stopping at seven checkpoints along the route to pick up a single playing card at each location. The Dale Hollow Poker Run is planned as a family event that is played out over 9 days. Players can choose to complete their poker hand over just one day, a weekend, or the entire week. We have both an early summer and late summer Poker Run scheduled. Participants may start at any of the participating marinas and choose their own direction and timing. The Poker Run is not a race, and there are no prizes for speed. We want this to be a safe, fun, family poker run. Eighty percent of the money collected will be paid out to the poker winners with one in five participants earning prize money. Twenty percent of the money will go to Ronald McDonald House Charities. There will be additional corporate opportunities to participate and donate to the Ronald McDonald House as well. The poker run is open to everyone…. Participate by boat, motorcycle, or auto – your choice. The week will also be filled with exciting entertainment and activities around Dale Hollow Lake. The Dale Hollow Poker Run will communicate the activities as they become available. Visit www.DaleHollowLakePokerRun.com for the most up to date Dale Hollow Lake Poker Run information and details.
