Adaptive Water Skiing

We are taking on a first-come first-serve basis the first 45 people with disabilities that preregisters to water ski with sit skis for adaptive water skiing.    Contact Kurt Roskopf 262-720-7031 adaptiveski@waterski.org

If you don't make that 45 people going skiing, don't worry:  You are welcome to come out and learn from the on-land instructions, demonstrations, and experiences.  We are also going to schedule future sessions as well.

For all things other than preregistering to ski on sit skis for adaptive water skiing, please contact Kurt Roskopf 262 720 7031 adaptiveski@waterski.org

If you would like to volunteer, donate money to these programs, loan or donate equipment even up to a boat, please let Kurt know.    Have skis, ropes, life jackets, and such is all helpful to contribute to allowing us to do as many of these programs as possible.

We are also doing adaptive water skiing in Muskego at the same time, so that is an option as well.

County Executive Dan Vrakas

will be out to this event to share some remarks about this work on

making adaptive water skiing more available in Waukesha County through

our community groups and charities.


JoeKards will provide some art creations for some of the attendees
AdvoCare will share information on hydration and other tips for days by the water and with sports
Tupperware will share information on what is available to help support funding for these programs.

Donna Lexa Art Centers will have art on display there.

A big thank you to Smokey's Bait Shop for donating use of their boat launch for the success of this event.
