Windy City Poker Championship - NEW CHARITY POKER ROOM LOCATION/PARKING DETAILS
Players will be required to park in specific locations at the 6080 159th street Oak Forest IL location. Merlin 200,000 Miles Auto Shop and Gerber Collision and Glass have provided parking spaces to our patrons to park at. These spots are located 1 block east and west of the charity poker room. We need to fill these lots first before opening the 25 spaces in front of the 6080 property in order to have enough parking for everyone including those in the plaza who are there for the other stores. Players will be assigned spots to park in the lots and will be given bonus chips for doing so. Players who do not park in the lots will be asked to move their cars or have a staff or volunteer move for them. If a spot is NOT available in the lot you are trying to park then you will be asked to go to the other parking lot. If both lots are filled then there are spaces available in front of the 6080. Those will be the last spots to be filled. Below is a illustration showing you where you are able to park.
Players will receive a slip if they want to put in their window with their name and number in case anyone needs to contact you. You will also get a on-time bonus chips even if you are late for parking in those lots. Remember that there is NO ALCOHOL allowed or consumed at the location. Any questions contact.
