When it comes the B.C. Peace Country River Rats and boating enthusiasts in the Peace Region, there’s no event quite like the annual Poker Rally. The 2018 River Rats Poker Rally is this weekend, July 13 and 14.
Starting on Friday at 7 p.m., members will gather together at the newly built pavilion in Peace Island Park to celebrate the new venue, and watch a movie. Pre-registration for Saturday’s poker ride will be available then.Trending Stories
Official registration is at 9 a.m. on July 14, and a free pancake breakfast will be available at the boat launch from 8 to 11 a.m. Boats will begin launching into the river at 10 a.m, when between 60 to 80 boats will ride to different stops collecting cards to build the best poker hand. Games will be held for kids at various stops as well.
“It’s all about the family, and we really want to make it fun for the kids. That’s why we keep getting so many people out to it year after year,” said River Rats President Jason Palfy.
There will also be a scavenger hunt for the kids and prizes afterward. Palfy said all watercraft are welcome, including jet skis and other boats besides speed boats.
A dinner will follow at 6 p.m. once everyone’s off the river, at the pavilion.River Rats Poker Rally Games
