6th Annual Dinghy Poker Run to benefit Providence Animal Rescue League

Have fun and raise money for a great cause. The 6th Annual Dinghy Poker Run to benefit Providence Animal Rescue League is back. Since the first one in 2019 we have raised over $27,700 for local animals in need, right here in Providence. We cant wait to do it again!

Participants will travel to various stops along the Seekonk and Providence River gathering playing cards in sealed envelopes. Upon return to the marina participants will present their cards. There will be a cash prize of 20% of event ticket sales for first place. ALL other proceeds from tickets, raffles and t shirt sales go directly to PARL. Any type of dingy is allowed up to 13 feet long, there are no restrictions on power type or horsepower. (Please inquire if your dinghy does not meet these specifications and you are interested in joining) This is not a race, the winning hand wins. Feel free to stop along the way and soak up the scenery of the Providence and Seekonk River. Providence Animal Rescue League will be onsite with games and prizes and possibly some adoptable pets looking for their fur-ever homes.
