Forgotten Soldiers Outreach
Come and join Forgotten Soldiers Outreach on our 3rd Annual Forgotten Soldiers Outreach Poker Run hosted and presented by The Moose Lodge 994 and MFC MC. We are going to have another awesome poker run to help Forgotten Soldiers Outreach send out our “We Care” packages to men and women deployed overseas that receive little to no support from the home front. Registration starts at 10:30am.
All proceeds from the poker run will benefit Forgotten Soldiers Outreach. We are a non for profit (501(c)(3) & tax exempt) organization. Our mission is to send out “We Care” packages to the troops that are deployed overseas. Our recipients are registered on our list because they have little to no support from the home front. Our “We Care” packages boost their morale. We receive thank you letters from our recipients saying that our packages are like opening Christmas presents every month. We have just completed our 12th year of service to our troops.
You will be starting at the Moose Lodge #994 (4844 Bowman Street, Greenacres). Here you will be signing your waiver and receiving your sheet to start the ride. The hands are as follows: 1 hand will be $10 or 3 hands for $25. All riders and passengers will be required to minimally purchase 1 hand at $10 and sign the waiver to participate in the poker run. You will then go over to Hurricane Grill & Wings (4075 State Road 7, Lake Worth) to start picking your first card of the hand. You will then travel over to Tree’s Wings (603 Royal Palm Beach Blvd). From there you will go over to Duggan’s Pub & Grill (4931 Okeechobee Blvd, West Palm Beach). Then you will go over to The VFW Post 2007 (1126 Clare Avenue) and will finish up back at The Moose Lodge 994 in Greenacres. Hurricanes and Tree’s Wings will have food. We would like for you to visit all these stops on the poker run. Remember that if you miss a stop, you can always pull the card for that stop at The Moose Lodge in Greenacres. When you come back to The Moose Lodge in Greenacres, you will have the opportunity, for $2, to change out on card in your hand.
With your purchase of your hand, the first 100 riders and passengers will receive a swag bag full of stuff. So make sure you are there to register at 10:30am. We will be giving out prizes to the winners for the best hand, second best and third best…..EVEN the worst hand of all the participants will receive a prize.
The Moose Lodge in Greenacres will be offering their facility to have vendors, bands, raffles, 50/50 raffles, adult beverages and food. Everyone is welcomed to participate on the ride (cars and motorcycles) or if you want to just stay at the Moose Lodge (Greenacres) all day, you can still purchase hands there as well and enjoy the festivities.
