Whitefish Woody Weekend

This annual weekend event, presented by the Big Sky Chapter of the Antique and Classic Boat Society (ACBS) and hosted by The Lodge at Whitefish Lake, brings together owners of classic and new wooden boats with enthusiasts to celebrate the beauty and craftsmanship of wooden boats.

Marking the unofficial beginning of summer, Whitefish Woody Weekend will begin on Friday evening at 8 PM with a sunset cruise/parade around beautiful Whitefish Lake. The classic boats will be on public display at the Lodge at Whitefish Lake from 9 AM until 6 PM on Saturday. Sunday morning will feature a poker run with the wood boats out on the lake followed by a BBQ on the beach at the Lodge for event participants.

The show is fun for all ages. The public is encouraged to join the fun on the lake or on the beaches, decks and docks around the lake for the Friday evening cruise; or to enjoy the boats up close and met the owners of these fine representatives of the art and craftsmanship of the past on Saturday at the Lodge at Whitefish Lake Marina. The public is invited to vote for their favorite boat to determine the People’s Choice Award winner. There will be drawings throughout the day for public boat rides on one of the classic beauties.

All boat activities are free and open to the public.
