Happy Father's Day, Dad.

Father's Day. A day to celebrate your father, your dad, the man that taught you how to do so many things. The man that married your mother and raised you from the moment you were born. The man that gives you guidance and advice (even when we don't want it, but you know he's right). The man who worked so hard to give his family a better life than he did.

Father, the man who would do anything in the world for you, be there to teach you how to ride a bicycle, be there to shoot basketball in the backyard, even build a paved court for you and your friends to play on. The man who gives you an allowance for work that you do around home. The man who is there to cheer you on at all of your ball games, come get you when you need that help at 1:00 in the morning. The man who helps you move into your college dorm and is there is you need anything.

Father, the man who is there for your wedding, help you get your first house, and there when you need a babysitter. The man who loves your mother and takes care of her when she's ill. Father, the man who loves you and his family more than you will probably ever know or understand, unless you're a father.

Happy Father's Day, Dad! I love you and I'm glad you're my father!

Looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the big city?
Then you need to check out the historic town of Smithfield, Virginia. Originally a Colonial seaport town established in 1750, Smithfield is noted in the Virginia Landmark's Registry as having one of the best preserved historic districts in the country. For a list of attractions and upcoming events in this Hampton Roads' community, CLICK HERE.

 

Located in Isle of Wight County, Smithfield has a population of approximately 8,100 (2010 Census population - 8,089) and is approximately 10.1 square miles in size. Smithfield offers residents a small-town atmosphere, interesting antique shops, a historic downtown, and great places to eat like Smithfield Station and The Smithfield Inn (built in 1752). According to the Virginia Review, Smithfield is "without a doubt, one of the prettiest towns in Virginia."

SMITHFIELD VIRGINIA'S PERFECT DESTINATION

Smithfield, Virginia is a quaint river-port town with a rich history. Stepping into the Historic District is in essence stepping into a time gone by where the charm of a simpler world awaits. In the heart of historic Smithfield on the banks of the Pagan River sits Smithfield Station, offering guests a superb spot to enjoy the solitude of this river-port town. This one-of-a-kind waterfront inn combines fine amenities, unique conference space, on-site dining and a fully equipped marina all within walking distance to art galleries, specialty shops, historic attractions and a diverse array of dining options.

Smithfield and surrounding Isle of Wight County are as old as Virginia itself, having been first colonized in 1634. Located on the banks of the Pagan River, and lying on the opposite shore of the James River, across from Jamestown, the area was soon discovered by Captain John Smith and other early settlers. Smithfield and surrounding counties saw action during the Revolutionary War and Civil War, mainly because of its proximity to the James River.

Smithfield has a vibrant award-winning historic downtown. Several festivals and parades are held throughout the year in the downtown area. In 2002, Smithfield celebrated its 250th Anniversary. For more information about annual events and parades, please visit The Smithfield and Isle of Wight Convention and Visitors Bureau. We also take pride in our tourism industry. There are several antique shops and other unique specialty shops along Main Street. The new Windsor Castle Trail Park is a beautiful trail system that winds you through the historic property along the river of Arthur Smith's homeplace.
