OK. I am confused.. so is the purpose of these poker runs to raise money for charities or an excuse to go fast? It seems to me if a person has a desire to help a charity he will still do it.. albeit at a slower pace. What am I missing?
To think that all you good folks who work hard for local charities woulld suddenly leave... I guess it makes me wonder about your original motives.
I might be all wrong but I am confused.
We will be raising money for charities at most poker runs that we attend. So there is not change in our motives. Given the option to run in a poker run that allows for running as fast as I want and one that will "pace" me then I will go to the one that will allow me to run my boat the way it was designed to be run. Those will be the runs that will raise the most amount of money as those are the ones that are going to draw the big dollar boats.
