2021-07 Poker Run
This Sunday July 18th event is our first poker run for many years. These are always a challenge because large parking areas are needed for each deal. Sunday football stole some of the better carparks, but we persisted. Thirty-seven people attended and the winners of a box of chocolates each were Meagan Garland (three kings), Barb Elphick (three jacks) and Mick Walton (three 10s). Lunch was at The Beatty Hotel at East Gresford and was very well-received by members. Rusty Bucket played many '60s and '70s covers and were very popular with members.- Bill and Barb and their fabulous Morris Minor Van at East Gresford.
