Welcome to my 12th Annual Hope Floats Kayak Poker Paddle!!🎉
Grab yourself a kayak, canoe, paddle boat or board, or whatever floats your boat and join us in our annual voyage up the Pine River in St Clair on July 19th 2025 at 11am.
We will be starting out at the St Clair boat harbor at 902 S 2nd street at 11am SHARP and traveling up the Pine river to a specific destination where a decorated pontoon boat awaits your arrival as the turnaround point.
There will be designated stops along the river where you pick up each poker card along the way the day of the event.
THIS IS NOT A TIMED EVENT so relax and enjoy, but you are required to come back by 2:30 if you want to participate in the poker hand and lunch afterwards.
There will be prizes for BEST poker hand as well as a second and third place too! We will be hosting a picnic lunch at the boat harbor in the pavilion upon retuning (the menu is to be determined) and I will also provide water.
Feel free to BYOB for those 21 and over PLEASE!!
