Hello everyone,

We can’t quite believe it ourselves, but it’s already August and the annual tournament is only a week away!

This year the tournament will be Saturday, August 16th* We’ll begin at 7AM with waterskiing, followed by wake boarding at 9:30AM, and wake surfing at 11AM. All skill levels are welcome. This is a great opportunity to show off your skills to your siblings and parents (or kids!).

For the first time, we’re also including a talent show component! Showcase your skills in anything you think you’re particularly talented at. Good examples include Trick Skiing, Pyramids, Air Chairing, and Paddle Skiing. Tubing does NOT qualify!

Entry is completely free, and participants will receive a free SLSBC t-shirt. We’re also looking for volunteers to help out. If you’re interested, email info@slsbc.ca and let us know.

We’ll follow up with an awards ceremony at 2:30PM on the ski club dock.

*Let’s hope for better weather than last year, but as always we’ll postpone it until Sunday if needed.

We hope to see everyone there!

Sincerely,

Your SLSBC Executive Team
