Join us for the 8th annual Poor Man Poker Run on Smith Lake, in partnership with King Boat Docks and other local businesses.
This popular family-friendly event serves as a fundraiser for Smith Lake search and recovery efforts, aiding in the procurement and maintenance of specialized deep water recovery equipment and hands-on training. Additionally, we set up annual grants for local search and rescue agencies and some nonprofits around the Smith Lake area.
