The Coves 2025 Neighbors in Need Campaign Wrap-Up Description: We raised $38,000 for local charities! Read the recap of The Coves Amphitheater's 2025 Neighbors in Need wrap-up and see who is playing the stage in May 2026.

This incredible sum was distributed among 8 incredibly deserving charities, including us here at SML Good Neighbors. This is the highest amount raised in the 34 year history of the tour, and the impact of this generosity will reach far and wide across our lake community.

The SML Charity Home Tour is more than just a peek inside beautiful homes, it’s a powerful community institution. What began in 1991 as a simple idea has blossomed into an event that captures the essence of Smith Mountain Lake living.
