Items sought for water skiing exhibit

The Tahoe Maritime Museum has identified a unique area of Lake Tahoe maritime history that is often over-looked – water skiing. The museum is developing an exhibit to highlight the history of water skiing at the Lake, which will be unveiled this summer.

The museum is interested in hearing from Museum members, supporters and others who are past water-ski champions at various competitive levels, individuals who would like to share their oral history, old home movies, memorabilia, historic photographs and memories of water skiing on the Lake, and from those who own historically accurate ski boats representing the evolution of the boat side of water skiing.

For more information, call the museum at (530) 525-9253 or e-mail info@tahoemaritimemuseum.org.
