This year's cause
Backing the volunteers who keep our peninsula safe.
The Whitianga Volunteer Fire Brigade is crewed by locals who drop everything when the pager goes: for fires, road crashes and storm call-outs. This year's funds go towards [WHAT THE FUNDS WILL BUY].
“[A short quote from the brigade about what the club's support means to them.]”
How the day works
Same route. Your own pace.
01
Register and roll out
Pick up your poker run card at Whitianga Volunteer Fire Brigade, say hello, and head off when you're ready.
02
Ride the poker run
Collect a card at each checkpoint along the route. The best hand at the end wins [PRIZE].
03
Food and music at camp
Finish at [CAMP LOCATION] for a good feed, live music and great company.
We all ride the same route, but everyone rides their own ride. Take the pace that suits you. It's not a race.
