LENOX, Mass. — Lenox Library Association will host a charity poker tournament on Saturday, April 20 from 7-10 p.m. in the Welles Gallery at the Lenox Library. 
 
This fundraising event will be hosted by Max Scherff, a Trustee of the Lenox Library Association, to offer community members and card players an opportunity to play poker while supporting a meaningful cause – the Lenox Library.
 
Poker Night at the library will be played in Texas Hold 'Em style. This tournament format forces raised antes throughout the night providing opportunities for top finishers to win significant prizes donated by area businesses. The "buy in" to this event is a $100 donation which goes towards library programs and materials. This admission fee will include light bites, mocktails, and cocktails, and is a tax-deductible donation to the Lenox Library Association which is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.  
 
"Thirty poker players can test their skills right here in Lenox. Without many local legal poker options, we are excited for some friendly competition at the poker table while players support the Lenox Library," said host, Max Scherff.
 
The event is limited to 30 people. Registration for the tournament is now open. To register, contact the Lenox Library Association Development Department at contact@lenoxlib.org or call 413.637.2630 x115. All players must pay in advance to reserve a seat.
