Location and other info: Silent Shores is located in Boone county near Thorntown, Indiana.  The lake is roughly 13 acres and has two attached ponds. The slalom and jump course area is approximately 1,850 feet in length.

Construction began in the fall of 2001.  Co-developer Dick Threlkeld won a coin toss to be the first person to water ski on the lake in the spring of 2002.

A 12 member ski club uses this great facility for practice and tournament skiing.
