16. Group Portrait

The Grand Finale

Each Sunday of this Fall at 2:00pm, from September 7 to October 26, the Ski-A-Rees ski team performs along the shores of Ken Thompson Park in Sarasota, Florida. This group is a diverse group reflecting a wide range of ages and talents. There are moms and dads along with college age and high school performers. Many have skied with other water ski teams at various U.S. venues. However, all of them demonstrate great athleticism, strength, and ability to work as a team. I had heard about this group for years but finally went to see them last Sunday afternoon. It was a great show with ideal weather. The “Group Portrait”, incorporating 15 of the performers, was part of their grand finale.
