Poker Night Volunteers Needed
It’s an easy & fun job but someone has to do it.Our first Poker nights are Tuesday, Febrary 12 thru Friday, February 15. We need volunteers to commit for those dates NOW! We normally work two shifts – 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. & 7 p.m. to 2 a.m. with two people per shift. Our role is to sell and redeem the poker chips from the players of these card games for which we receive a table rake every hand by the house dealers.
It will be at the 5 Star Lanes just west of Troy. It takes about 20 minutes to get there from Lake Orion. We have three other four day events scheduled, March 28 - 31, May 4 - 7 and May 24 - 27.
We have been qualified for community service (must 18 or older) by the court system if you know anyone needs it.
These fundraisers are critical to reaching our goal for the Fireworks as they generate about 1/3rd of our total commitment. Please give us some of your time. It’s easy and it can be fun to watch! Pick a date and contact Carl Cyrowski ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ) at your earliest convenience.

A little about LOFA
- The Lake Orion Fireworks Association is a non-profit organization comprised of volunteer community members.
- There are no paid committee members.
- All funds to pay for the fireworks display are raised thru donations from both area business's and individual community members, as well of various fund-raising activities.
The L.O.F.A was formed in 1990 by Nick Christi, a Lake Orion resident and owner of Christi's bar and grill in Lake Orion. Nick is still active in sponsoring fund raising events for the fireworks.- The display is put on by Wolverine Fireworks, a professional fireworks company.
- They provide the insurance required by the village of Lake Orion and are experts in advising our committee on safety measures and regulations to insure that we can deliver the best show available while keeping the estimated 100,000 spectators safe from harm!
