On Aug. 2, a poker run organized by Epsilon Sigma Alpha International members Milly Chandler-Archuleta and Gloria Anderson, raised funds so ESA can continue to donate to its many charities.
Local President Brenda Hopson said half the funds will go to ESA’s main benevolent entity, St. Jude Children’s Cancer Research Hospital, and that the rest will be spread to entities that ESA supports in Rangely. Thirteen bikes with 16 riders entered the run, won by Brielle Harvey, above, bringing her $170. Money was also raised by selling raffle tickets for door prizes donated by area companies. The ride went to Craig via Meeker and then back to Rangely via Massadona. ESA members were present at the East End Park, which marked the end of the poker run. ESA held a barbecue for the riders as they returned.
