Learn to Ski

Maybe joining the Ski Sprites is a little too much, but you or your kids want to learn how to ski? Perfect! We are hosting a Learn to Ski Event at Lake Altoona to teach the skills needed to water ski in a safe manner. After this event, you will be able to impress anyone on your lake!

We'll also post a message on the skisprites.com homepage and Facebook page.
