Our club dues are $130 per skier and $15 per non-skier. If you are under age 18 you must have at least one parent/adult join with you (either as a non-skier or a skier).USA Water Ski dues (our mandatory insurance) are $75 for the first adult and $35 for each additional family member. For individuals joining between ages 18 and 24 the cost is $40. For individuals age 25 and older the cost is $70. Wisconsin Water Ski Federation is $30 per family or $15 per individual.
Here's how that breaks down:
Families: If you are under 18 the total cost for you and one non-skiing adult to join (which is our minimum requirement) would be $285. For each additional skier in your family add $165. For each additional non-skier add $50.
Individuals: If you are between ages 18 and 24 the total cost for a skier to join is $185, a non-skier is $70. If you are over 25 the cost for a skier is $215, a non-skier is $100.
It costs our club at least $500 per skier per season in expenses. We make up the difference between our dues and our costs through fundraising, concession stand sales, show take, business sponsorships and program ad sales.
You can reduce or eliminate the Water Walker club portion of your dues by selling program ads or by getting businesses to sponsor a show.
Other costs: Girls need to purchase a performance ski vest ($40-$110) and will want to wear athletic yoga type pants during practice in cooler weather. Guys generally wear wet suits and the team has some available for use.
Skis, ropes, the boat, and costumes are provided by the club. Wakeboarders and kneeboarders provide their own equipment.
