Lake Michigan Poker Run 2019
Of all four runs the biggest highlight for multiple reasons is probably Northern Michigan’s legendary Boyne Thunder Poker Run which sells out its 120 spots each July for the annual 150-mile waterway expedition through Lake Charlevoix and Lake Michigan. The Boyne Thunder Poker Run also draws crowds each year. This unique event brings 120 cigarette boats on a 135-mile course through Lake Charlevoix and Lake Michigan, with stops for poker cards along the way. When Boyne City Main Street got its start 15 years ago, it was considered a “risk” for their community. But now, that risk has paid off. Shot and Edited by Insta - @pbryso.shoots.
