1st Annual Iron Abbey Poker Run



On Sunday, September 26th, the Iron Abbey Gastro Pub lined the parking lot with florescent orange tape, put up signs that read "Bike Parking here" and registered bikers and car enthusiasts to participate in an 80 mile run through Montgomery County. The run was orchestrated to build funding for a Warrington, Pa, gem of an organization, the Special Equestrians.
Special Equestrians works to build confidence, movement and growth in individuals with disabilities. Through the help of volunteers, medical professionals and their stables lined with horses, the Special Equestrians organization is making moves and changing lives.




Participants had breakfast & lunch on the Abbey!

Sponsors included Chapman C&C Ford, the Residence Inn, Griffith Insurance, HBO, The Goddard School (Horsham), Origlio Beverage, Abington Bank & Wooden Wire. Unlimited Opportunities donated their work and posters/banners for the event.


They say that with rain comes good fortune. While it wasn't the safest weather to take a ride in, we appreciate all of the partners, participants and SE volunteers that helped with the event. The Iron Abbey considers itself fortunate to have had the opportunity to work and play with all of you.

See you next year.

Cheers.
