Big Bend Hospice thanks the Wakulla Free Riders for poker run fundraiser
Editor, The Sun:
Big Bend Hospice sends a huge thank you to the Wakulla Free Riders along with the Wakulla and Leon county communities, and Jubel’s wife Sandy Bissonnette!
The 6th annual “Remembering Jubel, Run for Hospice” Poker Run was a success again this year! A large group of Jubel’s family and friends came out to honor him and support Big Bend Hospice.
Money was donated in cash jars around the community and a heartfelt thank you to the many places that donated auction items for the raffle. In total, the event raised $5,442 for Big Bend Hospice. Proceeds will benefit patients and families in the Wakulla County area.
Riders left from Dux in Crawfordville with stops at Ouzts Too in Newport, Las Brazas restaurant in Woodville, Southside Hobbit in Tallahassee, ending at the Wakulla Free Riders Clubhouse in Crawfordville. Hamaknockers BBQ generously donated lunch for everyone.
A special thank you to the Wakulla Free Riders for donating their time and their clubhouse for the event. Big Bend Hospice would not be who we are today without the support of the community, and this is a perfect example.
