This is a "free" show that you can take your whole family to. Skiers are in costume and there are announcers and music. There's a show every Sunday at 6pm in the summer and they also have shows on Lake DuBay on Thursdays in the summer and some road shows. They collect a donation at intermission and there's a concessions stand and you can buy raffle tickets. Bring a chair to sit on and arrive at least 20 minutes before the show to get a good parking spot. If going to Lake DuBay bring sun glasses or a hat/visor. The shows have progressively improved over the years and has become a top notch entertainment experience.

A great place to take your entire family to watch the impressive talents of our local waterski team. Always fun! A concessions stand is available for snacks. Typically held on Sunday nights throughout the summer. Put it on your summer to-do list.

Took in the show tonight, July 31st, with my family! I can't believe we haven't been going to see them perform!! Words are hard to find to describe the fantastic show they put on! From the music, story line and all the talented people on the water and the volunteers behind the scenes, it was A-1 from beginning to end and did I mention FREE!! They had a raffle going for the Forgotten Honor Flight and a 50-50 raffle...you could also make a donation if you desires. Great concessions and free popcorn tonight. Just a real great-feel-good time! Ages of the performers were from 5 - 55 years old and all a delight! Couldn't believe all the costume changes!!

The various ages of the members, makes for a good show. Something to do on a Sunday evening. Cheap night, a free will offering is collected. What else can you do with a family for $5 or $10 bucks?

Mostly younger people on the ski team. A worthwhile cause to support and a good event for families. Can BYOB and food, or a simple concession stand is available for simple dogs, snacks, and beverages. Might be a bit slow for children with short attention-spans. Bring a blanket, camp chairs, or sit on provided bleachers.

We went to the Thursday night show in Mosinee. It was Announcer Lexi's birthday. She does a fantastic job announcing for being only 15 yr old. The show was great, until the rain came, after about 1 hr into the show. By the time we got to the car, we were wetter than the skiers.
This was a better show than the professionals in WI Dells. More family orientated and not as commercialized.
We will plan to come for a full show next time we get back to the area.

My family and have been going to their shows for 5 years. Great show and good people. Would highly recommend seeing them. They work extremely hard to put on a show that's free.

Great entertainment for free! Sound was excellent. Show moves along with an nice storyline. An inspiration for people of all ages to engage in an active sport, whatever their age or skiing ability. Donations welcome since the organization is nonprofit. Concessions available for a reasonable cost or bring your own cooler.

Attended the show on Lake DuBay on a Thursday night. It draws a pretty good crowd. The skiers put on a good show - children through adults participated. They have small concession stand that's reasonably priced as well with snacks and drinks. The microphone was having some issues so it was annoying to listen to them talk - otherwise I would have given them a 5.

Thank you for taking time to review our show! We got a new sound system set up this year and we are working out a few bugs, but we appreciate your honesty. We hope to see you again!
