Twin Lakes Waterski Club’s primary goal is to provide optimal conditions for each skier’s performance.  We hope that shortening the schedule to 3 days will make it possible for everyone to stay over and participate in the entire event.   Three days on two lakes is equivalent to six days on one lake - so there will still be plenty of time for practice and other activities, as well as flexibility to help insure that every skier gets the best possible conditions.  Come, enjoy, and ski your personal best!
