🇺🇸 What a Tournament! 🏟️ Thank you to everyone who made Saturday’s Freedom Isn’t Free Charity Poker event possible - our VFW Post 7244 members, volunteers, the entire Little Family, our generous sponsors, and of course our vibrant community that showed up to play, buy raffle tickets and support our fundraising efforts. The 9th year of this annual shark 🦈pool did not disappoint.

The energy was electric! ⚡️ The house was packed, the BBQ dinner with all the sides and dessert was delicious (Thank you Rick and Sandi White) the beer was flowing (Thank you calicraftfairfield), the charcuterie table unbelievable (Thank you, Heritage House Cafe), the collection of prizes was impressive (Thank you, Jenny Little), and competition fierce. A diverse and talented group of players that battled it out for hours (well after 9pm) until only one remained.

Sharing a few highlights of the night’s revelries with a full showcase of the Tournament winners to follow for a Part 2. Stay tuned for more!

Oh what night!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
