Local merchants are putting on a county-wide Poker Run. When you spend $20 or more at a participating store you'll get an envelope containing a playing card.

Collect as many envelopes with cards as possible-- but don't open the envelopes before the close of the game! Your best hand will be made from the cards you collect. The game ends January 22, when the winning hand will be determined at the Sierra Valley Lodge in Calpine. We'll post more details in the events section as that gets closer.

Participating stores are:

Downieville:
Western Sierra Firearms • Sierra Hardware • Vintage Gal • Two Rivers Gallery • Sierra Motors • Downieville Day Spa • St. Charles Place
