1st Annual GPS Poker Ride
This event is organzied by the Revelstoke ATV Club
If you have an ATV and a GPS you will not want to miss this event. You will get some experience using your GPS and can win a prize. Here is how it works.
You buy your hand for $10, which gets you five cards your 1st card is free for taking part in the poker ride. The remaining four cards have to be earned. To do this you draw four sets of coordinates that you will have to find. When you find the 1st set of coordinates you will find a POI marker like the yellow one above. On this marker is a unique Ser#. Mark this number down and better yet take a picture of it with your digital camera just in case you write the number down wrong. You then go on and find the remaining three markers that are left in your hand recording there Ser#?s as well. When you have found all four of your markers you return back to the staging area and give your Ser#?s to the ride controller. If the four Ser#?s match the Ser#?s of the four coordinates you picked you then receive four more card for your hand. The controller of the ride enters these cards into the computer and after all riders have returned and have been entered a 1st prize winner(s) will be aworded as well as a 2nd and 3rd prize.
This ride is not a race we want you to enjoy this scenic area and have fun riding your ATV and using your GPS. Things you should bring with you other than your ATV and GPS are MAPS or MAP BOOK ie Back roads Map Book Vol. 3, Compass, Paper & pencil Lunch, Rain gear & extra gas.
