Join Fort Worth as we host the Interstate 20 Corridor Poker Run on August 20th from 1pm-6pm CST. IFR Traffic is welcome, however, we encourage VFR to increase traffic capacity and your personal event experience. Fly up and down Interstate 20 between our 6 fully staffed airports and make a full stop to collect each one of your 5 cards for your hand! We will give out prizes to people with the top hands at the end of the event. A bonus card to increase your odds of winning will be awarded to your hand if you visit all 5 Stops!

TODAYS THE DAY!  8) Sign ups are open all day and even during the event! Good luck to everyone and to the random controller who will win one of the prizes!

Please review preferred routings IFR and VFR. www.skyvector.com (http://www.skyvector.com) is the way to go for your VFR charts to get around

Pilots, please be sure to review VFR procedures including calling controllers 10 miles out when inbound to an airport!
