17th Annual Chicago River & Lake Michigan Boat Cruise Fundraiser

August 27, 2024

Registration available HERE

SAME’s Chicago and Lake Michigan Post invite you to attend our 17th Annual Boat Cruise Fundraiser.
This two-hour cruise is an enjoyable way to spend a summer evening with fellow SAME members and guests, and has become a highlight of our summer programs!

Started in 2007, the Cruise has raised over $50,000 for various veteran and military family support organizations. Our goal for this year’s event is to raise $10,000 through corporate sponsorships and attendance. We are continuing our long-standing support to Fisher House—Illinois. New this year, we will be supporting V.E.T. Service Dogs, a non-profit organization which helps provide veterans with the best quality service dogs.
