Poker run stops determined for Lani Kai blood and bone marrow drive

By Staff | Jul 10, 2009

Most of the stops for the Kenny Conidaris poker run have been determined, rolling down the road the same day as the blood and bone marrow drive at the Lani Kai, all to raise funds and donors to help local patients in need.

For the fourth year in a row, the Conidaris family, along with the Lee Memorial Health System and the Lani Kai, are on the hunt for Kenny’s perfect bone marrow match, taking place Saturday, July 18, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The poker run will kick off at the Lani Kai at 9 a.m., with the last bike out at 10 a.m. The cost is $20 per rider.

During the poker run, bikers and their riders will hit Tropics, Benchwarmers, Junkanoo, Val’s Lounge and the Lani Kai.

During the blood and bone marrow drive, there will be plenty of fun, food, prizes, games and live music throughout the Lani Kai premises.

The Tropical Breeze reggae band will entertain the crowd, and plenty of prizes and giveaways will be presented to those donating blood or bone marrow swabs.

Suffering from Severe Aplastic Anemia, 15-year-old Kenny Conidaris is in dire need for a bone marrow match and transplant. Are you the one?

For more information or to donate anything to the event, whether they’re coupons to your establishment, gift certificates, items, gifts, freebies or volunteer service, call Ken Conidaris, 463-3111.
