Free poker tourney to benefit hospitals

A free Texas Hold-Em Poker Tournament will be held Saturday to benefit The Daily Nonpareil's Hospitals Program.

The tournament will begin at 6:40 p.m. at Railway Inn, 115 S. 12th St. Registration will be held from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.

The tournament is free, but there will be a $5 cover charge for all bar entrants, with the proceeds going to the Nonpareil's Hospitals Program. This program provides free newspapers for hospital patients every day. Each month more than 8,000 newspapers are delivered to the patients of local hospitals.

The Texas Hold-Em Poker Tournament is sponsored by Budweiser, Railway Inn and the Daily Nonpareil. There will be free drawings and prizes.
