Roger Cravenor Fundraiser Tourney
My name is Roger Cravenor and I am having a fundraiser poker
tournament with the assistance of Club Poker League for my
brother Dr. Robert Allen Cravenor D.O. in order to help with the
high cost of medical expenses on April 11th at 1:00 P.M. at the
Olde World Restaurant in North Port, FL.
Dr. Robert Allen Cravenor D.O. graduated from Cambridge High
School with honors in 1999. Where he then attended Kent State
University and graduated with a BS degree in Biology in 2003
Summa Cum Laude. He was accepted and attend Ohio Universities
Osteopathic School of Medicine. He graduated with a Doctorate
Degree in Osteopathic Medicine in July of 2007.
In September of 2007 he was diagnosed with ALS (Amyotrophic
Lateral Sclerosis) or commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease.
ALS is a rapidly progressive degenerative neuromuscular disease.
When he was diagnosed with ALS he started having phone
consultations every month and coming down to Port Charlotte
every six months with his wife Jamie Cravenor to work with
naturopath Dr. Robert Morse. I moved down to Port Charlotte in
November of 2009 so my brother would have a place to stay during
the winter months in order to be closer and work more
extensively with his Doctor in attempts to beat this horrific
disease.
Any table sponsorships or donations would greatly be
appreciated. Please feel free to contact Roger Cravenor at (740)

Double Win Days
Two double certificates for first place and two single wins
for second place. No chopping.
Club Poker League players will now be using a new way to track
their wins. Instead of countless certificates piling up in your
car or wherever you keep you winning certificates, players will
be issued a certificate booklet. Each book will hold up to 40 entries
and show the date, place, type/points and verification stamp of
your wins. Dealers will still complete the standard winner sheet
and results will be posted online as before. The booklets have a
convenient list off Club Poker league venues and times on the back
page. (Current at time of printing)
Club Poker League staff wants to thank Gary for inventing, designing
and supplying all current books in circulation. The booklets will
save around 3000 sheets of paper per season. Without your outstanding
efforts, the booklets would not be possible!
Thank You,
CPL Staff
