Perfect weather, a new boat, and a new venue set the stage for record attendance and participation for the 2014 Indiana Water Ski Association's Spring Fling. Approximately 35 skiers took advantage to ski behind the new Mastercraft Prostar 200 supplied by Pinecrest Marine. An additional 75 people simply enjoyed the food, drink, and social atmosphere of the day. Venders Sun Valley Sports, Skier's Edge, and Jim's Hot Sauce displayed and sold their wares. Featured skiers included Michele Miller on the single swivel ski, Molly Harrison on the single trick ski, Ethan Miller on the wakeboard, and the 3 Avengers on EZ Skis added variety to the slalom skiers. Later in the evening a little doubles skiing, Brewski Bar Ski, the Goose Hunter Skier, and the Reclinoski ended the activities. The Annual Spring Fling is just around the corner! Sun Valley Sports is planning on being there to display and demonstrate their goods including some paddle boards. Come test a paddleboard at the Brewski Lake Beach!
