The Madison County Record has details about the 10th annual Route 66 Festival in Edwardsville, Ill., on June 9-10.
The gala has one new twist:
A new program that will be added this year is the Poker Run. This is a fun and exciting event that will be offered from 3-6 p.m. Participants will travel to five different locations throughout the city including Crushed Grapes, Dairy Queen, Auto Tire, and Royal Office Supplies.
At each location, a playing card will be given. At the fifth and final location, the Festival, the cards will be handed in. The best poker hand wins.
So if you're in the St. Louis area, head over to the metro-east and check it out.
