The Fraternal Order of the Eagles Riders of Campbell River donated $2,000 each to the Campbell River Search and Rescue, the Comox Valley Search and Rescue and the Campbell River Hospital Foundation.
The funds came from the rider's annual charity Poker Run in June. Over 100 motorcyclists participated in the event despite the rain. The event has raised over $40,000 for the Campbell River's local charities since 2016.
Pat Decque, the secretary of Eagles #3097, said the event would not be possible without the commitment of the group's motorcycle enthusiasts and the generosity of local businesses, private donors, and volunteers who donated their time and money to the event.
