Win prizes in different age categories (parents can help the little ones!) as we section off a portion of the beach for our very own contest.

  Saturday Evening Kids Night

For year, ISI has been taking great care of our members' children. For pre-teens, there are plenty of games and activities to go along with food and drink. Bring a sleeping bag, because we'll keep the kids until you're back from the Annual Dinner & Dance.

Saturday Evening Teen Night

In past years, we've done pizza parties, bingo, beach volleyball and and a bonfire with s'mores. Stay tuned for more details about this year's activities for the older kids.

Saturday Evening Cocktail Party

After the kids have been situated at one of our two activity centers, the adults meet to kick off Saturday evening with a pre-dinner cocktail party for one last chance to meet and mingle with old and new friends and contacts.

Spouses Breakfast
featuring Page Love

Last year's guest dietician was so popular, our ladies asked us to set up a special breakfast meeting for more time (we did)! This year, we're bringing down Karen Anderson of NutriFit Georgia for a talk on making sense of all the different diets out there, and a chance to ask your personal questions.
