Tesoro poker run

Tesoro employees honored the memory of fellow employees lost in a fatal fire earlier this year by hosting a “poker run” on Saturday, September 25. Funds from the event, held the day before the 2010 Oyster Run motorcyle rally, will be contributed to the Burned Children Recovery Foundation. Among those pictured here are event organizer Bob Spiller; Shauna Gumbel, mother of fire victim Matt Gumbel; Jennifer Dyment, fiance of fire victim Lew Janz; Michael Mathis, founder of the Burned Children Recovery Foundation. Stations on the five-stop poker run included Tesoro Refinery, Anacortes Iron, Soundview Shopper, Frank’s Place and Tyee Hotel in Coupeville. Tesoro hosted a luncheon and prizes were distributed at an afternoon event held at the Tesoro Employees Recreation Association (TERA) Building on plant grounds.
