We are currently half way through our fundRAZOR campaign that helps fund our ski season! Thank you to all those that have shared and donated, your input is greatly appreciated. We have raised $480 towards our goal of $5500, so please keep spreading the word to friends and family that would like to support the UARK Water Ski Club.
WOO PIG SOOIE!
Thank you so much for taking the time to learn more about the University of Arkansas Waterski Club! We are so excited to get this season started and start competing. Donations are directed towards travel expenses, new equipment, and tournament fees. Thank you in advance for your support! WOO PIG!
Example of miscellaneous items we need as a club are chairs, ez up tents, ice chests, and other tournament essentials to keep us healthy and ready to ski.
This donation will help cover the average cost of entry fees for a member. Typically, the club covers these fees for members, which can add up quickly. Your donation will reduce that burden on the club.
Our team bindings are either torn, zip tied, or straight unusable, and we need to purchase new boots to replace the unusable ones. Your donation will help cover costs such as this and ensure our team has what we need to compete!
As with any private ski lake, it is expensive to get lake time, pay for gas, and maintain the boat. We can’t be successful without regular practice and your donation helps fund that!
Skis are our second most expensive cost. New jump skis can cost $3,400, slaloms around $1,500+, and trick skis $1,000. Your donation will help us cover some of the costs associated with purchasing new equipment.
When we compete at tournaments, our skiers need vests, gloves, and club jerseys. We want to show our team spirit while we’re on the water, and your donation will help us represent the U of A!
Our biggest expenses associated with travel are gas and hotel costs due to the significant distance most tournaments are from Fayetteville. With your donation, we will be able to fund our essential expenses and defend the Razorback name.
This past year, we left NCWSA nationals as the 16th ranked team. Our athletes took home four individual national medals! With your help, we hope to raise our team ranking, along with bringing home more individual medals!
