2023 McGuire Poker Run
August 12, 2023 @ 8:30 am - 4:00 pm
$10 – $25The Band of Brothers USMC Riding Club is putting on a charity poker run 12 August and one hundred percent of the proceeds go directly to the veterans at the Richmond VA Medical Center in Richmond, VA. The funds go into their commissary accounts so that they can buy move-in kits, hygiene products, clothing or comfort items as they stay at Richmond VA Medical Center (formally McGuire VA Medical Center). Many are homeless or low income and all of those items normally come as an out of pocket expense.
The event starts at the VFW Post 1503 in Dale City and winds through 75 miles throughout Prince William, Fauquier, Stafford and Spotsylvania counties, ending at Fraternal Order of Eagles 4123 in Fredericksburg, VA. There will be prizes for best and lowest hand, raffle prizes, 50/50, donations, t-shirts sales, food, drinks and vendors.
We are a non- profit organization 501(c)3 that do a lot to raise money and support veteran charities locally and across the country.
