CHARITY powerboat poker run

ABOUT THE EVENT

We have a new Lake St. Clair Poker Run for a very special charity! If you did not catch it last season, the Splash for Kids will be a multi-day event this year, from August 16-18, 2024.

The co-founders are two long-time boating industry business owners—Chip Miller of Miller Marina, and Eric Lafata of Lafata Custom Paint. Both of these men lost their fathers unfortunately at an early age. This has led them to support other children who have lost their parents.

Last season, over 200 people attended this 1st time boat event on 40 fast boats. While thoroughly enjoying the fantastic weather day and making new friends, over $20,000 was raised and was given to the Tennessee Children’s Home.

This year, Chip and Eric plan to increase the visibility for this charity’s 2nd Anniversary “Splash for the Kids” event. We will be having a Pool Party on Friday, the charity Poker Run on Saturday, and wrapping things up Sunday with a Raft-Off. Proceeds from this year’s events will once again be going towards the Tennessee Children’s Home.

If you’d like to participate or sponsor at one of these events to help support Splash for Kids, you may find more information using the links below. Updated seasonal information with links to register can always be found at www.lakestclairguide.com/events.
