The 2nd annual Bates County Adult Recovery Court Poker Run assembled on the Butler square starting around 9 a.m. with nearly
twice as many bikes as before and almost 70 riders.
The Adult Recovery Court program is proving to be a growing success as the 5th person graduated just this week.
Money raised from the Poker Run is used to help fund the recovery program in Bates County.
