Eagles Poker Run
Advertisement
The Ann Arbor Eagles will sponsor a Poker Run/Bike and Car Show at 10 a.m. Saturday. There are five stops along the way.
Registration is $25 and includes food providing by the Eagles. It's not just bikes, it's "drive what you bring," including cars and motor homes.
The Eagles is an international non-profit organization, which strives to make a difference in communities.
The Eagles, founded in 1898, has since given more than $100 million to charities. This year's charity is the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF).
This charity was chosen in honor of former Eagle member, Peter Haggerty, whose life was cut short by type I diabetes.
The group is looking for more items to auction/raffle, in addition to public interest in participating in the event.
It starts at the Eagles' location at 7881 Jackson Road.
For more information call 1-734-424-9551.
