Advocating 4 Kids is holding a poker run and fly-in benefit in central Florida, winding up at Jumbolair Estates (17FL), near Ocala, on March 19.
The event supports the recruiting and retention of volunteer child advocates for the Florida Guardian Ad Litem program, which covers special needs for about 5,000 child abuse victims in central Florida, according to its chairman, Marty Harris.
Participants can pick up four sealed playing cards over a 45-day period, from a variety of central Florida FBOs and restaurants. The final card will be selected at the Jumbolair event, where more than 150 planes are expected for the luncheon. A variety of flying and non-flying gifts will be presented to winners and available for a silent auction, Harris said.
There is a donation of $100 per poker run participant, or $25 for lunch-only visitors.
