The Business After Hours will feature goodie bags, a poker run (karting, shooting, rifle, pistol, skeet, and autocross), food and bar in the Gallery, and music at the Tavern. 

As attendees arrive at the main gate, they will be given a sheet for the poker run that lists the locations they need to visit to get cards for a poker hand.  Participants can acquire one card per location. The poker run activities are scheduled to run from 5:00 - 6:00 p.m.  Everyone should be back at the Gallery by 6:30 p.m. for the poker run and door prizes.  No special clothing is needed unless participants want to ride the go karts.  Anyone wishing to kart will need closed toed shoes. There is also a fee associated with karting.  Skeet, pistol, and rifle ranges will provide complimentary shooting.  No special equipment is needed as safety glasses and ear plugs will be provided.  Auto Cross is also complimentary.  As a safety reminder, anyone who has consumed alcohol will not be allowed to participate in the activities affiliated with the poker run.
