Valley businesses help in girl’s cause

Three Surface Creek Valley businesses agreed to participate in a fund raiser poker run last Saturday for a 14-year-old girl who is facing surgery for a rare brain disorder.

The Pondy, Aspen Trails, and the Eagle's Nest were scheduled stops for the poker run event where riders are dealt cards to try and collect a winning hand to win prizes. Participants pay to play and entry fees go to the fund raiser.

It was Al Robinson’s first ride in the 1951 GMC pickup project he has been working on since last August, and it was right in style for the 1950s drive-in theme fund raiser at the Stolte Shed last Saturday. Al applied the nice, two-tone, platinum-and-gray paint in his own garage. Still at the “work in progress” stage, the truck displays Al’s distinctive custom grill work and a 396 c.i. Chevy engine reminiscent of the ‘66 Chevelle SS he had in high school, and which moves the truck nicely to sunny day venues.
