Hodag Waterski Shows first started in 1971, with their first show on the Fourth of July.  Many of the current members are second generation members, with new members joining all the time!  Hodag Waterski Shows is a non-profit organization run by it's members and and rely on local donations and fundraisers.  All money raised goes to pay for the clubs expenses. Current corporate sponsors include: Shoeder's Marine and Mercury for the two 150 hp Merc Motors, Krapil Electric for keeping the lights on, DCI Building Center for the donation of all materials for the dock and wakeboard slider, and Hodag Towing, Custom Collision, Bikes and Boards, and Holiday Acres.
