“Poker on the Fox: A Second Act”

News Release – June 22, 2011

OSHKOSH, WI – Wednesday, June 22, 2011 -

This August Poker on the Fox is at it again!  This will be the second annual great day of fun that boaters, motorcyclists, music lovers, and the public are sure to enjoy. The August 6^th event can be summed up into three celebrated activities including a power sports show, concert with Naughty Monkey at the Leach Amphitheater and our Poker Run throughout the Fox Valley. Preregistration ‘kick-off party’ will be on Friday August 5^th at Beckets.

Poker on the Fox is an annual event dedicated to supporting our local communities. This year benefactors include Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund, maintenance of our waterways and recreational activities in the Fox Valley and surrounding areas.

“This year we have really changed things around to make Poker on the Fox a impressive day of fun”, committee member, Janine Faught states, “We have put an immense amount of effort into making the event something that boaters, motorcyclists and the general public from around the Midwest can come to Oshkosh and enjoy.”

We believe that this event is a great addition to the events Oshkosh has to offer. Poker on the Fox has something for everyone: a concert, for the music lover, a power sports show, for the adventure enthusiast and the poker run which everyone can enjoy. Additionally, and most important, all net proceeds will benefit our community.
