SUMMARY:Winter Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:The racks of bucks aren’t built to last\, falling off every spring only to regrow each summer. They grow back more impressive than before. How do these amazing ornaments “know” how to grow? To find answers we’ll do a little exploring in the science of evolutionary developmental biology. \nThe presenter\, Dr. Jason Davis\, is an Associate Professor of Biology and Associate Director of the Honors College at Radford University. He holds a PhD in Neuroscience and Animal Behavior from Emory University. He is co-director of Radford’s Ecophysiology Research Lab\, where his work focuses on the physiological and behavioral mechanisms that animals use to adapt to a complex world. \nThe Winter Lecture Series is presented by the Friends of Smith Mountain Lake State Park. Proceeds go to help fund educational programs in the park. \nTicket Prices: Single ticket: $ 8\, Single season ticket: $22\, Two season tickets: $35\, \nFriends of SMLSP – season ticket: $20\, Prices include parking. All tickets paid at the door. \nFor more information call: 540-297-6066

SUMMARY:Jim Cameron Memorial Walk at Smith Mountain Lake State Park

Jim Cameron\, LCM’s Executive Director from 2003-2010\, was renowned for his tireless efforts managing day-to-day operations of the Ministry as well as his passionate dedication to helping those in need. All proceeds from the JCMW will be utilized by Lake Christian Ministries to help our neighbors in need in the SML area. Lake Christian Ministries is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization\, located on Old Moneta Road in Moneta. Since 1992\, LCM has been providing food\, clothing and emergency financial aid to lake-area residents from Bedford\, Franklin\, and Pittsylvania counties. \nFor more information about the JCMW or to become involved as a walker\, team leader\, sponsor\, patron\, or volunteer \, please contact Bart Matthies at (540) 912-9141 or Lynda Imirie at (540) 721-3492. After June\, registration and forms should be available online at our website. \nMost walkers are with teams from businesses\, churches\, service clubs\, neighborhoods\, etc.\, but there are many individuals also\, who gather pledges July-August\, then collect the pledges the first two weeks of September\, and turn them in to complete preregistration. Others turn in their collected pledges at registration on the day of the walk.  The 5K or 10K Walks begin and end at the Smith Mountain Lake State Park beach area.
