A total of 5 “Free Draw” chips per scorecard may be purchased the morning of for $5 each. The ride is not a race and will take approximately 3-4 hours at a nice leisurely pace. We want you to stop and look around and enjoy the beauty of western North Carolina and North Georgia.

Participants will draw a card from each stop and present the card and your scorecard to the Rotary Club of Murphy volunteer where yourscorecard will be marked by the volunteer and logged on their masterlist. If you don’t like the card you have drawn, here is where you can cash in your “Free Draw” chip. It’s a risk, you might get a better card or a worse card. That’s the excitement of risk! If playing 5 hands, present only one card at a time to the volunteer to play. You can use only 1 “Free Draw” chip per hand per checkpoint EXCEPT on the final checkpoint. On the final checkpoint, you can cash in remaining chips, but again, present only one card at a time to the volunteer. There will be NO REFUNDS on any unused “Free Draw” chips.

No duplicate cards can be used. Participants must draw an additional card if an identical card is drawn. Cash prizes will be awarded to Best Hand, Runner Up and Worst Hand. In the case of a tie, there will be a draw for High Card to determine the winner. The decision of the judge is  final.
