SOWW 2nd Annual Poker Run

Serve Our Willing Warriors would like to recap our 2nd Annual Serve Our Willing Warriors Poker Run and thank all of those who came out! This event has had such an overwhelming response in positivity and community involvement.

We had some faithful riders signed up for the bike ride and sure enough at 8:00 am we kicked it up a notch and strapped on our studded leather boots to get everyone ready to RIDE.

SOWW was lucky enough to have a table at a Harley Davidson bike rally out near Lake Anna on June 14th before the Poker Run. This event was anticipated to bring together a whopping 20,000 -30,000 bikers from all over the country! Reflecting back on the event, it was exactly just what we expected and exactly what we needed with the SOWW Annual Poker Ride around the corner.

Together everyone made connections with some very interesting characters all while promoting the wholesome image of SOWW and our core mission to give back to the men and women who have served in the armed forces by building retreat homes in Haymarket, VA.

I have to admit, it was tempting to infiltrate a group of bikers and ride with them on the back mountain roads even after the event however, I stuck to photographing shots with my camera on the back of a bike. Luckily for us, we already have our own group and our own patch and we represented accordingly!

Thank you to all of the sponsors and participants who supported the event and made this all possible. We are planning a Motorcycle Ride for the fall. Make sure to keep your eyes and ears open to our events page for the confirmed date!
