BloomAgain NJ raised over $11,500 at our first Charity Texas Hold’em Tournament at the Shrewsbury Firehouse!The highlight of the night came when Andrew Erskine (1st place $3,000) and Lewis Gaskin (2nd place $1,500) donated their winnings!“When they handed me back their winnings I was stunned! It was a fantastic surprise and a wonderful way to end the evening!” exclaimed event organizer and BloomAgain board member, Meg Ricard.
The tournament had licensed dealers and was run by Class Act Casino, a professional entertainment company. Sponsored by Smallwood Wealth Management of Red Bank, Blackhawk Network, and Red Bank Orthodontics, the event’s success came in the details. Players enjoyed a bourbon tasting sponsored by New Jersey’s own Penelope Bourbon, craft beer on tap sponsored by Atlantic Highland’s Carton Brewing, and delicious food from Mutiny BBQ in Asbury Park. For an extra special touch, Daisy Chocolates of Monmouth Beach and Sweet Dani B of Asbury Park designed custom poker themed dessert trays. We hope this becomes an annual event! |
