Wednesday April 8 - April 29
Deal Me In - an Olney Days Poker Run Fundraiser
Purchase a Deal Me In Passport at participating restaurants which gives you exclusive discounts. Starting April 8th, visit at least five participating locations. With each purchase you will receive a playing card. Collect as many cards as you can, then choose your best five to create the highest-ranking poker hand. When you think you have a winning hand, turn in your Poker Passport at any participating location. All passports must be turned in by 8:00 pm on April 29th or mail to PO Box 661, Olney, MD 20830 to arrive by April 29. The owner of the Passport with the best poker hand will win a Preferred Parking spot and two drink tickets to use at this year's Olney Days Party in the Park as well as $25 to use however the winner wishes.
Because we like second chances, all non-winning Passports with at least five playing cards will be entered into a random drawing for a special prize.
Get out of the kitchen, support Olney Days, and have some fun.
