You are invited to join us at Smith Mountain Lake for a two-part event this

summer during the week of July 14-20, 2025.

Part 1 - The Cruise

Join us as we cruise the 20,000 acres of SML on house boats. Enjoy the live-aboard life in

fully equipped boats as we take in the sites and rendezvous locations around the lake. We'll

board the rented boats on Monday, 14 July, and cruise together for 4 days and return ashore

Thursday, the 17th. If house boats are not your thing, bring your boat, or rent a runabout of

your choice and sleep ashore.

Part 2 - The Rendezvous

On Thursday, 17 July, our activities will move to Mariner's Landing in Huddleston, Va.

This will be the center of our activities, hospitality and banquet. Mariner's Landing is a lake

front condo and residential community that includes swimming and fishing areas, docks,

tennis & pickle ball courts, fitness and game rooms, indoor and outdoor pools, eateries, golf

and more.

The Call to Action

July is a busy season for SML. Vacationers will soon be booking homes and boat rentals.

We need to get there before them. So, make the decision to join us for this event now. Then,

book reservations for your choice of boats and rooms before availability becomes difficult.

The sooner you book reservations the better. Details of activities are still being developed

and will be communicated as they come together. Rendezvous registration will also follow later.

Sharing boats and housing is encouraged.
