Mission

As you know, our Mission Statement is about unity and community!   
We aim to bring together all who "lake" in our area, in every way we can, to bring forth an appreciation for the myriad ways people enjoy lake life, and to offer suggestions for you to get out and experience lake life in every possible positive way.  

We are here to tell your story, your way!

We feel strong about our community, the people, the businesses, everything that gives our community life.  Our hope is that as we connect with all of you, we share your experiences, promote your way of life on the lake, and that by sharing and promoting a nature of inclusiveness, tolerance and respect, we begin to pull together more as a community of full-time and part-time residents, surrounded by our lake, Smith Lake–this beautiful expansive body of water that we all share as a backyard.  

​We're ready to hear from YOU!  Tell us YOUR Smith Lake story!  #mylakelife

We allow our readers who share stories to work closely with our writers to tell any story they like in their way.  Our writers are experienced, thorough, thoughtful and sensitive, and they wish to do your story justice.  Don't be afraid, jump in, join our team and let's talk about YOU, the readers and your lake experiences.
