EDGERTON — The fourth-annual poker run and raffle fundraiser benefiting homeless veterans in Edgerton returns June 27. Organizers say they hope this year’s proceeds will help address an unmet need: housing support for women veterans.
The event, co-hosted by American Legion Post of 205 & Bucky’s Lucky Bell of Janesville, will begin at 8:30 a.m. Poker run participants will stop at various local spots including The Showboat Burgers ‘N’ Beer, Snuffy’s Still, 59er Sip & Swing and Last Nite Bar & Grill during the ride.
The American Legion will collect household items, gift cards and cash donations for the tenants of recently-opened homeless veterans’ apartments at West Fulton Street in Edgerton…
