After a one year hiatus, the poker run returns in 2021!
SEMAG Meet & Greet #76 - Poker Run 2021
Town: Berkley
Date: June 5th
Time: 9:45 A.M. - 12:30 P.M.
Additional Info: This will be the thid edition of this event, and the first since 2019.
Five caches and a bonus final 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 5th 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.
New this year: a bonus final cache will be available to be found as well. Inside this bonus cache will be a deck of unsealed cards, and you may substitute one of these cards for one of the cards from the envelopes!
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.
