Min-Aqua Bats Water Ski Show
The Min-Aqua Bats Waterski Club originated in 1950 when a group of local young people waterskiing Sunday afternoons on Lake Minocqua noticed they'd drawn an audience — and decided to put together a show. The doubles and trio acts that are now standard at nearly every amateur and professional waterski show in the country? Those originated here in the 1950s. Today the Bats are one of the oldest waterski show teams in the United States, performing free shows every Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday at 7 PM during the summer season — June 10 opens the 2026 schedule.
