Poker Ski proceeds on foot as winter weather remains elusive

Due to lack of snow the Rainy Lake Nordic Ski Club had to pivot from holding a Poker Ski to a Poker Hike on Saturday, February 10, 2024. Participants were able to take a lovely walk in the woods on Saturday morning and pick up poker chips along the way to trade in for a hand of cards at the end of the walk. After getting their poker hand they were treated to hot dogs and hot chocolate courtesy of the Fort Frances Kiwanis Club.
