Indiana smart Fundraiser for Boys and Girls Club

I am putting together a fundraiser for the Clinton County Boys and Girls CLub in Frankfort Indiana. It will be a poker run to earn money for the Club. Here are the basics. Please provide me feedback on interest.

What is it?

It will be called the “smart cards” but it is really a poker run for those of you with bikes.

It is an opportunity for smart owners to do something fun together, enjoy each other, enjoy their cars, and help the Clinton County Boys and Girls Club 1100 West Green Street Frankfort, Indiana as part of a fundraiser

What do we do?

We will meet at the Clinton County Boys and Girls Club at 11am and then go on (The first ever that I know of) smart poker run. It will depart at 1pm

The Clinton County Boys and Girls Club will host a chili lunch as part of the fundraiser from 11 until first car out.

We will drive our cars down a scenic, planned, marked, and mapped route it is about 100 miles total basically as a group.

We will pull our first card at the Clinton County Boys and Girls Club, stop at 3 scenic places along the route and pull cards, then finally we will stop at The Burlington Scoop (ice cream / pizza parlor in Burlington) to pull our 5th and final card of the poker run.

Then determine the winner of the best hand. Winner will get some money ($25.00 or so). This money can be donated back to the Boys and Girls Club if you choose

What will be the highlights?
  • A drive down the smooth and curvy Mulberry – Jefferson blacktop
  • A drive up the very scenic south river road between Georgetown and Logansport. The trees are so old and so big that they grow over the road
  • Drive across the covered bridge just outside of Cutler
  • See Adams Mill a very cool turn of the century corn mill that is a now a museum
  • Drive down a curvy scenic path between Cutler and Burlington
  • Try ice cream or dinner at Scoops
  • So many smart cars together
  • So many smart owners doing something good for a worthy cause (Boys and Girls Club)
  • Start a smart trend
  • Maybe some prizes (we are working on it)
  • Photo ops, photo ops
What is the cost?
  • Smart cards drive (poker run) will be $10.00 per person playing (remember ALL money goes to the Boys and Girls Club
  • Boys and Girls Club lunch (has not been decided yet but maybe around $5.00) (remember ALL money goes to the Boys and Girls Club)
  • Ice cream or pizza at Scoops your on your own – I am trying to get them to donate a portion of the profits (like 10%) to the Boys and Girls Club as well, we are still in negotiations

When is it?

November the 9th
