Cruisin' SOMD 2025 Event Info

Cruisin’ Southern Maryland, Inc. was formed in 2012 by a group of Southern Maryland antique, classic, and muscle care enthusiasts for the purpose of conducting an annual Car Cruise to raise money to principally benefit the Charlotte Hall Veterans Home, as well as other local not for profit organizations, especially Veteran’s charities.

The organization is a registered 501-(c)(3) non-profit and is managed by a dedicated group of 20 plus members that work nearly year-round to plan and organize the annual event. To date, we have donated over $229,000 to the Charlotte Hall Veterans Home, our primary beneficiary, as well as an additional $49,000 to other charities for the benefit of Veterans.

The 2025 Cruisin’ SOMD event is on Saturday, October 4th, 2025. The event starts at 8:30 am at the Charlotte Hall Park and Ride with the cruise departing it’s first location at 9:00 am. We ask that everyone please get there before 8:30 to check in and register. In the event of forecasted rain, the rain date is Sunday, October 5th.

How would you like to have your car on the official Cruisin’ SOMD event shirt? Every year, we raffle off tickets with the winner getting the privilege of choosing next years car to go on the shirt. Last year we raised over $650 towards the Veterans through the t-shirt raflle.

For 2025 we are introducing an online version where you can purchase tickets ahead of time. You do not have to be in the cruise to purchase a ticket, however the car chosen must be in the cruise. So you can buy a ticket to help a loved one or friend get on the shirt but only Cruisin’ SOMD participants cars are eligible to be chosen.
