On Saturday the 27th, the Nassau Moose Lodge 2352 of Yulee, and Dreams Come True held Maddie’s Angels Poker Run.  Kickstands were up at 11 with last bike in at 5pm where everyone enjoyed live music with the No Saints Band, auctions, raffles and 50/50, and dinner for all riders.

Established in 1984, it is an organization unlike any other of its kind as the First Coast’s only locally based nonprofit dedicated to granting dreams for children with life-threatening illnesses. Dreams provide brave children and their families with a momentary reprieve from the rigors of medical treatment often associated with life-threatening illnesses. As Dreams temporarily removes the child from doctor visits, hospital stays, tests and needles and brings laughter, joy and childhood to the forefront. All children between the ages of 2 1/2 and 18 who have been diagnosed with a life-threatening illness and either live, or are treated in Northeast Florida or Southeast Georgia are eligible for a dream. For more information, contact 6803 Southpoint Parkway, Jacksonville, FL 32216 or call 904-296-4244 and help a child’s dream come true.
