a trail pass is required for all Alberta Poker rally's however, you can buy a day pass the day of the event for $10 I believe.

not as much as I would like to be, but right now I'm still very involved in my local club, and of course Snowandmud...... I may be moving to the east coast in about a year or two so I'm just paying off debts and will buy a new sled and quad when I go out there. We'll see how the girlfriend thing goes

No age limit really, I think riders under 14 have to be under the supervision of an adult by Alberta law though.

After a meeting tonite there are a couple of changes to the rules of the poker rally.
These events are considered by Alberta gaming to be raffles and therefore we cannot sell hands to participants under the age of 18. That being said, there are no limits to the number of hands that each adult can buy, and what they do with the prizes is completely up to the winner.
If you have any questions feel free to call one of the contact numbers or P.M me

Hey wheeler send me down some cash and I'll put a few hands in for you. I'll be sure to send any winnings that you accumulate back your way...I promise

 

[WCTHEMI]

I might have to get someone to do that for me as well, stuck working all weekend. The guys that could work for me are riding this weekend, so no rally for me.
