Poker enthusiasts are invited to take part in a special charity “Texas Hold ‘Em” tournament to benefit Dearborn students that’s happening Sunday, June 7, at The Fairlane Club.

All proceeds benefit The Dearborn Public Schools Education Foundation. The Education Foundation is a private, non-profit organization not affiliated with the school district. It has raised more than $1 million to fund technology and innovative programs in Dearborn Public Schools classrooms.

The tournament will be conducted by a professional casino gaming firm. Doors open at 5 p.m. The evening includes food, refreshments, one drink ticket, side games and buy-ins, other table games, beer station and a cash bar (ages 21 years and older).

The cost is $75 per person, with all proceeds going to The Education Foundation. Space is limited and it suggested that players reserve their places as soon as possible.

To make reservations, contact Robert at dearbornedfoundation@comcast.net or Education Foundation President Brian Mosallam at 313.712.5300.

“It’s going to be a wonderful evening as we all have some fun while doing something to help students in the community,” said Mosallam. “We’d also like to thank The Fairlane Club for its continued strong support of the Education Foundation and the young people we serve.”

The Fairlane Club is located at 5000 Fairlane Woods Drive. For a tour or more information, call Christine Bane at 313.336.4400. You can visit their website at www.FairlaneClub.com
