Embark on an unforgettable journey with the Helping Hands Poker Run and experience the adrenaline-pumping excitement of off-roading while supporting a great cause. We’ve designed two fantastic options to ensure everyone can participate in this thrilling event, regardless of whether you have your own off-road vehicle or not.

At the Helping Hands Poker Run, we’re excited to offer two distinct courses tailored to match your adventure level and how you wish to experience the thrill of off-roading. Whether you’re a seasoned off-roader or new to the adventure, there’s a path for you. And the best part? If you bring your own vehicle, you have the freedom to tackle either course—or even both—to fully customize your adventure.

The “Desert Cruise” is our inclusive, scenic route designed for participants of all experience levels. If you’re planning to ride along with us in one of our Side-by-Sides or Jeeps, this will be your path. The course is perfect for families, first-timers, and those who prefer a leisurely journey through breathtaking landscapes, making it ideal for anyone who wishes to soak in the beauty of the outdoors at a comfortable pace.

Participants with their own vehicles are also welcome to embark on the “Desert Cruise.” It’s the perfect course for those who have a family vehicle with 4-wheel drive but have never taken it off-roading. Enjoy the event’s camaraderie, marvel at the picturesque scenery, and support a great cause, all with the added comfort and familiarity of your own 4-wheel drive.

For those who crave a challenge and wish to push their off-roading skills to the limit, the “Rugged Ride” course awaits. This course is designed for more experienced off-roaders looking for an adrenaline rush. Navigate through demanding terrain and tackle obstacles that test your skill and your vehicle’s capabilities.

Participants bringing their own off-road vehicles have the unique opportunity to conquer the “Rugged Ride,” experiencing the raw, unbridled thrill of advanced off-roading. And if you’re up for the ultimate adventure, why not make a day of it and explore both courses?

No matter which course you choose, or if you decide to experience both, your participation supports the USARC’s mission to provide adaptive outdoor recreation opportunities for individuals with disabilities. Each path offers its own unique set of joys and challenges, ensuring an unforgettable day of adventure, community, and support for a fantastic cause.

In the heart of every person lies a spirit of adventure, a yearning to explore the wonders of the outdoors, to feel the exhilaration of conquering new terrains, and to savor the joy of shared experiences. Yet, for many individuals with disabilities, these experiences remain just beyond reach, not for lack of will, but for want of support and resources. This is where you can make a transformative difference.
