2013 Sara’s Garden Poker Run Photos

There are times that a thank you just seems far to inadequate. This is one of those times.

This past Saturday, June 29 we celebrated the 10th annual poker run to benefit Sara’s Garden. It is so hard to believe that this was the 10th year for the event. Harder to believe, is the continued support by so many amazing people and businesses!

Organizing a successful poker run can be very time consuming and tiring. However, seeing the expressions of joy on the faces of our clients who got to take rides around the parking lot on the motorcycles before the event made all that melt away and reaffirmed just how important events like this are.

Thank you so much to everyone who planned for, participated in, donated to and volunteered at this year’s Sara’s Garden poker run! We are truly grateful for (and humbled by) your faithful support.
