Gun Runner Charity Poker Run

There are a few things that go great together in life. Chocolate and Peanut Butter. Hot Dogs and Hamburgers. Beers and Brats. Another great pairing is the combination of two iconic American symbols. Motorcycles and Guns.


Gun Runner Charity Event

Now, to make this even a better combination is when you may combine these two together for a great cause.

A portion of the proceeds will support Truth in Nature, reaching the fatherless. “Our mission is to reach, inspire, support, and engage young men from fatherless and single parent homes in understanding their purpose as Christian men and helping break the fatherless cycle in society today.
