COTTONWOOD SUMMER CLASSIC IV

Once again, I want to thank everyone who attended for making this another memorable event.  Thanks to our chief officials Nicole Baird, Chad Scott, Ward McLain and Joe Darwin and all who assisted in running the events.  

We dodged every major rain event in a 5-state region on Saturday.  We could not have asked for better conditions.  Sunday was beautiful as well.  We enjoyed great performances from many of the skiers.  The following achieved or tied their personal bests this weekend:

Shelby Walters / Mike Erb / Joe Darwin / Ian McElroy / Eric Schmidt / Tyler Scott / Whit O'Brien

Some of the memorable performances were Chad Scott's 2 @ 41 off and Tyler Scott's 2 @ 39 off (36 mph).

Three new lake records were set this weekend in age divisions:  Tyler Scott in Boy's 3, Dana Zander in Women's 2 and Stephanie Stange in Women's 3.  Check the lake records page for all performances.  We've been fortunate to draw a very impressive group of skiers to our tournaments.

A big thanks goes to the Midway Marine guys Eric and Ben for the food and drink on Saturday night and supplying the Malibu boat.  Thanks to Southwest Correct Craft for the t-shirts.  Thanks to Bubba Powell for supplying the Ski Nautique and Olde Oaks Ski Club for supplying the MasterCraft.  We couldn't have done it without all of you.

Thanks to the Darwin and Erb families for their hospitality and opening their homes for another "backyard invasion".  And finally, thanks to the Cottonwood Water Ski members (Mike, Karen, Jim, Michael, Blake, Whit and Eric) who worked hard to make certain everyone had a great time and the event flowed smoothly.

Have a great ski season and we'll see you next year!
