Bring your friends and joins Zac's Legacy Foundation for the Black Hawk Blast this Saturday.

John and Sara Carlson knows firsthand what it's like to see a child die from cancer. They saw this happen to their son, Zackery, when he was only 2 1/2 years old.  I'm not sure how anyone pulls through something like that but the Carlson's not only found a way to deal with their own personal grief, but now help hundreds of other children with cancer, and their families, get through it. They wanted to keep the memory of love, care and sharing alive, and now Zackery continues to touch hearts through the Gift of Giving and the basis of Zac's Legacy Foundation.

Hence the Black Hawk Blast...a walking poker run of sorts. Check in 8:00 AM at the Greeley Moose Lodge, bus leaves promptly at 9 AM and you might still have time to reserve a seat on the bus by calling John at 970-330-9000 or you are welcome to drive yourself.

Once you get to Black Hawk, you'll visit a list of casinos to collect your cards. Once you collect the 5 best (or worst) cards everyone will meet at the Canyon Casino by 12:30 PM for lunch and turn in your hand for best & worst hand prizes. Here is a list of the casino's you will be visiting:

  • Bullwhackers
  • Saratoga's
  • Bull Durham
  • Wild Card
  • The Station
  • The Canyon

All proceeds benefit Zac's Legacy Foundation.
