The Espanola Volunteer Firefighters are ready to battle another worthy cause.

Firefighter and Muscular Dystrophy Chair, Ryan Courtemanche, says this Fourth Annual ATV Poker Run is set to go this coming September 22nd.

Courtemanche says the run will be from Boogie Mountain south to House Lake and back, and it can last four to six hours depending on how muddy one wants to get.

There are plenty of prizes and dinner included with the $50 entry fees going towards offsetting costs and proceeds to Muscular Dystrophy Canada.

Tickets are available from Espanola firefighters.
