The Waterhawks Ski Team is one of the most active ski clubs in the
State of Iowa. The club was organized in September of 1958 with 16
charter members who had an interest in promoting ski safety,
boating and family fun on the water. Membership increased rapidly
and today has over 100 members. The team will be celebrating our
50th anniversary in 2008. The Waterhawks purchased Eagle Lake on
November 16, 1993 as joint tenants with Rick and Margaret Reuter,
their neighbors to the west. This purchase helped the team grow
into the club you see today. The Waterhawks are very strong in both
Show Skiing and 3-Event Skiing. They have taken the State 3-Event
and Show team titles for numerous years. During 2004, 2005 and
2006, the Show Team qualified to attend the National Ski Show
Championships Division 1 and finished in the top 10. The 7th place
finish in 2005 was the best finish for the Waterhawks or any Iowa
based team. For many years they have sponsored a Ski Day for
students of the Vinton Braille School to allow them the opportunity
to experience the joy of the sport. We have been fortunate to still
have one of those students as a regular member of the team, Dean
Maurer, along with his parents, Lowell & Darlene. The
Waterhawks have been sponsoring a Ski Day for the Covenant Rehab
Unit. Again, the day is devoted to giving them a fun day at the
lake with boat rides and any type of skiing adventure they may wish
to attempt with assistance from the Waterhawks volunteers. In
October, the Haunted Halloween Hayride takes place in the woods
behind Eagle Lake. The funds raised from this event go to the
capitol improvements at the lake. These are quite visible over the
last couple years. There have been many hours of volunteer help
along with many of them being extended family and friends of the
Waterhawks members. The large improvements on this site include the
Concession Stand/Club House, bleachers and the outstanding new
beach and “Waterhawks” wall. We, the Waterhawks, thank you very
much for coming to our show and giving us the privilege to
entertain you. Sit back….relax….and enjoy!
