Free clinic to hold poker run
COVINGTON - On April 19, the Alleghany Free Clinic will be having its second annual poker run. The ride starts and ends at Belly Up Café. Bikes or cars can leave between 10 a.m. and noon. Prize for the best hand is $500.
Last year's event was successful in raising money to provide health care for the uninsured in the Alleghany Highlands. More than 200 drivers and riders participated; some came from as far away as China Grove, N.C.
The first 100 registrants receive a T-shirt listing all area businesses and individuals who helped sponsor the event. In addition, many door prizes will be given away. One winner will be drawn for the round of golf for four at any Homestead course.
Anyone wishing to pre-register can come by the clinic during normal business hours or call 540-863-3019.
