The Greater Jacksonville, Cockeysville, and Timonium Optimist Clubs are sponsoring a Poker Run to help finance the Shop With a Cop program.
What is a Poker Run? Participants register at a main location, drive to a series of checkpoints where they get an official card stamped, and return to the starting point. When a vehicle completes the circuit, its registered occupants draw five playing cards. The top poker hands win prizes. Motorcycles and cars are welcome!
To add to the fun, raffle tickets for additional prizes such as gift certificates to stores and restaurants are sold. At the end of the event, the raffle winners are announced and the poker run prizes are awarded.

Hugh O'Brien Youth Leadership
HOBY programs provide youth selected by their schools to participate in unique leadership training, service-learning and motivation-building experiences. HOBY also provides adults with opportunities to make a significant impact on the lives of youth by volunteering.
The
2010 HOBY Seminar was held at Mt. St. Mary's University in Emmittsburg,
MD May 29-31.
180
High School Sophomores attended the leadership seminar--GJOC President Barbara Crain chaired a table at the Career Luncheon
on Friday; Dennis & Ann Lane judged
essays on Saturday; Carol Applegate, MD
HOBY President, was involved at the Seminar all weekend; and MDSD
District Governor, Mickey Price from
Phoenix, MD was there on Sunday morning to judge candidates to represent
MD at the World Leadership Conference in LA in July. Twenty-three
Optimist Clubs in our District, including GJOC, donated $9,000 to
support students attendance at the seminar. Working with HOBY is
an excellent example of Optimists working to "Bring Out the Best in
Kids!"
