Angel Flight Southeast to host Texas Hold’em tournament at Sun ’n Fun

By Janice Wood · March 20, 2012 ·

Angel Flight Southeast, which coordinates free air transportation for children and adults with medical or compelling humanitarian needs, will host a charity Texas Hold’em Tournament March 31 during the Sun ’n Fun airshow in Lakeland, Florida.

For more than 25 years, Angel Flight Southeast has been helping people throughout Florida and the Southeast. All pilots donate their time, aircraft, fuel and experience for each mission, so there is never a charge to the patient. Last year the organization coordinated more than 2,500 missions throughout the six state region it serves.

Proceeds from the poker tournament will go directly to Angel Flight Southeast’s mission.

The tournament will be held in conjunction with Sun ’n Fun at the Central Florida Aerospace Academy on the Lakeland Linder Regional Airport (LAL). Cost per player is $90 with early registration of $45 if registered by March 27. Registration includes entry to the event, dinner and initial chips. Click here to register.
