The Van Wert Soil and Water Conservation District will host a Conservation Poker Run from 7:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Friday, August 9, at the Farm Bureau Building at the Van Wert County Fairgrounds.
Morning pastries and the rules for the contest will be presented before heading out to tour three different agricultural facilities.

Once the tours are complete, the group will meet back at the Farm Bureau Building for lunch. The winner will be announced after lunch. The prize, a Black Stone Grill, will be awarded to the person with the best poker hand.
