The 19th Annual Charity Dinghy Poker Run Saturday, July 25 at Oriental Marina & Inn − on the Tiki Bar Deck. Presented by Oriental’s Nautical Collective (NSA, SCOO and ODC) and open to all.

The Oriental harbor and surrounding waters provide the card table for the Dinghy Poker Run. One card each is dealt from various docks in Smith and Greens Creeks. Players return to the Tiki Bar Deck and present their best five-card hand(s) to determine winnings.

You do not need a dinghy – or know how to play poker. Hands can be drawn at the Tiki Bar Deck and there’s plenty of folks to help you out.

Hands $10 each, 3 for $25, go on sale at 9:30a. Poker Run begins at 11a, runs until 12:30p. Food available at 12:30p. Silent and Live auctions, 50/50 raffle held after lunch. Cash Bar.

Proceeds benefit Pamlico youth sailing, swimming lessons and nautical activities. For more information, or to volunteer to help or to donate auction items, contact Todd Cox via email toddcoxvt@gmail.com.
