This year marks the 16th year Russell Marine and the Alexander City Lions Club have joined forces to bring you one of the most enjoyed events on Lake Martin—the Lions Lake Martin Charity Poker Run.

Participants will register and draw their first card at The Ridge Marina, then draw a card at each of the next four stops along the way, hoping to build the high hand and win the $1,700 prize. Subsequent stops include River North Marina, Harbor Pointe Marina, Real Island Marina, and Kowaliga Marina, and the event culminates with the after party at Kowaliga Restaurant with live music, food, and more fun.

Awarded are 1st, 2nd and 3rd prizes for Best Hand, Worst Hand, and Best Crew, and each participant will receive an official Poker Run t-shirt, a Lake Martin summer t-shirt, two meal tickets for the party, and one key which may open the treasure chest containing $2,000 in prizes such as Costa del Mar sunglasses, a Hyperlite Skurfer, Hyperlite Party Pad, a Connelly tube, and more!

Registration is $160 per hand. To improve your hand at the end, one additional card may be purchased for a $25 donation at Kowaliga Restaurant between 2 pm and 4 pm. Participants can preregister at any Russell Marine location. Make your check payable to Alexander City Lions Club.

We hope you’ll be a part of this fun and rewarding day on the lake! For more information, contact Emily Sprayberry at 256.212.1416.
