February 2, 2016
Bill Baker (Eagleville, Pa.) is the recipient of USA Water Ski’s

Award of Merit, the organization’s highest award for a volunteer.

Bill received a standing ovation from the crowd of over 250

USA-Water Ski members in attendance.

Baker has always sought to inspire water skiers to become

officials and current officials to move to higher levels through

teaching, sharing and testing. The example he has set as an official is an everlasting contribution to maintaining the highest level of integrity and sportsmanship in the tournaments of the American Water Ski Association’s Eastern Region and wherever he is officiating. An accomplished slalom skier and jumper at the regional and national levels, Baker’s contributions as an official and administrator have been immense. He was a charter member of the Port Indian Ski Club; senior judge since 1987; Pan Am judge since 1992; past chief judge of the Eastern Regionals, U.S. Team Trials and Nationals; AWSA national director; Eastern Region executive vice president; and AWSA vice president.  

"They saved the best for last.  When Bill's name was announced I lost sight of him as he made his way to the stage. It was a special night, a special honor for a special man who has been a source of pride for Pennsylvania and the Eastern Region for decades.

Thank you Bill for your leadership and countless contributions to the Port Indian Ski Club, the Keystone Water Ski Federation, the Eastern Region, AWSA, USA Water Ski, and skiers all over the world.  This is the highest honor USA Water Ski has, and it certainly went to a deserving individual."  By Doug Robbins - click link for web page

The River Freeze and Unfreeze 2018!

January 13, 2018:

The river finally unfroze last night!  Seemed to be a "good unfreeze" as the ice was thin and we did not see any docks getting taken away like in 2014.  Using a long exposure, check out the unique landscape that unfolded.
