At Follies Show
group of water skiers from
tone and llermiston. who were
labeled by the announcer as
the Circle K Trampoline and Ski
lub. helped put on the water
ski shows at Trl-Cilies the past
two week ends.
Primary contractor for the
shows was Leonard Vik of
Kennewick who has helped the
lone bovs in many of their ski
ing activities.
M. iking the trip were Tom
uid Rav Helmbigner. Joe, Mark
:nii Frank Halvorsen. Kathv
Watt. Jerl Jeppe and Robin
Clark. The show was verv sue-
essful and moved with the ra
pidity that only experienced
personnel can do.
Living up to their reputation
of doing some new and nearly
impossible stunts, the youths
teamed up with Fred. Bev, and
Vicky Ilinkle of Kennewick to
set the first nine-people pyra
mid ever set in this area. Not
ontent with this extraordinary
feat, group leader Tom Helm-
bigned ordered the bovs to kick
If a ski while in front of the
crowd, making it quite prob
ably the world s first one-ski
9 -man pyramid!
Many favorable comments
were mnue tv spectators annul
the flawless execution and the
extreme difficulty of all the 21
acts in the show.
The shows were a part of the
annual Tri Citics Water Follies
celebration and the skiers used
the pit area of the giant hy
droplanes. They felt it was
quite an experience to mingle
with the crews and drivers of
these famous boats.
