It was typical Scott Tynan/Sawmill Lake weather on Saturday, September 20th.  Even the first skiers off the dock didn't complain due to a warm prediction and picture perfect water conditions.  Approximately 30 skiers enjoyed the excellent water conditions and usual hospitality of the Sawmill Lake group.  Out of state skiers from Michigan, Ohio, and Tennessee joined the Hoosier skiers for the day.

Indiana will be well represented in the 2014 Water Ski Worlds to be held at Sunset Lakes in Groveland, Florida from October 8th - 12th.  Pictured is Prissy Edwards.  Prissy along with Kim Contos, Chris Clark, and Scott Tynan have been invited to participate.   You all make us proud!

Congratulations to newlyweds Neal and Kristin Clark who were married on August 16th in Fort Wayne.

The 65th Bart's Indiana State Water Ski Championships held at Hawthorn Lake is now history.  The event got off to a rainy start gut the skies cleared after an hour and half rain to present pristine skiing conditions for all skier divisions on both Saturday and Sunday.  Podium awards were presented throughout the day.  Several State Championship Records were broken  on both days by skiers Nate Smith, Prissy Edwards, Gary Hall, and Glen Reid.  Attendance was at an all time high in comparison to recent state tournaments.  IWSA enrolled 20 new memberships bringing our numbers up close to 100 memberships!  (more that double from previous years!)  Thanks to Hawthorn Lake, the Tucker family, the Detty families, the officials, the promo boat representatives, and friends who pitched in to help. 

Official Results Coming Soon.

Good day for Indiana in the In His Wakes Head-to-Head Slalom event in Paducah, KY. Sam Jackson and Casey Contos placed 3rd and 4th respectively, in the 36 MPH division. Both earned their first pay checks in a skiing event!

The first of 2 "learn to ski days" sponsored by the Indy Skiers at their ski site on White River just north of 16th Street in Indianapolis was well attended by both members and guests.  Several new skiers learned to water ski and we were all witness to a couple of people who learned to slalom ski.  Boat rides to the "not so brave" folks was also provided along with beverages and food.  Hats off to the Indy Skiers for promoting our favorite sport.
