Participants: Anyone who would like to learn to ski! Participants do not need any prior water skiing experience to participate. The ability to swim is recommended but not required (each participant will wear a life vest).
Cost: FREE!
Dates: June 1 – Aug. 31, 2023 (exact clinic dates vary by location)
