(If you draw the same card at your following stops, you will do a redraw) All suits are equal. All stops have one Joker, in which the Joker counts as a “freebie wild card” on your Card Sheet. If you pull a Joker, you will receive a Joker stamp on the corner of your Card Sheet that signifies you get one freebie of your choice prior to turning your Card Sheet in. You must declare which card the Joker will represent before you turn in your Card Sheet at the final stop. You may only use one Joker per Card Sheet – if you pull a Joker at two stops you will only receive ONE Joker Stamp on your Card Sheet. 5 cards = 1 hand Ace can be used as the lowest number or highest number Jokers = act as a wild card   ABOUT THE FOUNDATION: 100% of the proceeds from this event will benefit the “I Love LK Memorial Fund”, which honors the life and legacy of Lila Kate McAlister and the kindness she showed to others through donations to local causes.
