The 52th monthly SEMAG event is returning to Dighton Rock State Park for another Poker Run.
SEMAG Meet & Greet #52 - Poker Run
Town: Berkley
Date: April 14th
Time: 9:45 A.M. - 12:30 P.M.
Additional Info: Last year, we held our first Poker Run based on Owwdduck's Poker Run Adventure and it was so much fun that we thought we would do it again!
Five caches will be hidden in Dighton Rock State Park prior to this event. At some point during the morning of the event all caches will be published. Do not attempt to find them prior to 10:00 on June 15th or your log will be deleted. Your goal will be to locate each cache and take a sealed envelope from inside each one. Each envelope will contain one playing card, and you will need to visit all five caches and retrieve an envelope from each. Please don't cheat and look in the envelope or you may get disqualified!
Once you have gotten all five envelopes, return to the sign in table and reveal your "poker hand." We will write down everyone's poker hand, and at 12:00, the winners will be announced. Whoever has the "best" poker hand will have first choice of the prize table, and so on down the list. If there are any leftover prizes, the list will repeat starting with the best hand and going down again.
We will use as much help as we can get with this event, so anyone who would like to do so please let us know. In addition, donations of prizes will be greatly appreciated. We will be providing some snack food and drinks, and donations for those as well are welcome.
