"The Club" - Started in 1975, the High Point Water Ski Club is a group of water skiers interested in promoting the sport of water skiing with an emphasis on safety and tournament slalom skiing. We accomplish this by sponsoring nationally sanctioned tournaments; nationally sanctioned officials clinics for judges, drivers, scorers and safety personnel; and occasionally formal ski clinics for improving slalom skiing skills. High Point Water Ski Club members ski at John's Lake, a private lake used for training and tournaments located in Wantage, NJ. Club members are nationally ranked on the AWSA national standings list for competitive slalom skiing.
Our goals are simple.

• To encourage safe recreational boating and skiing.
• Teaching members how to be responsible participants in all capacities.
• Encouraging members to earn AWSA national level ratings as judges, boat drivers, scorers and safety personnel.
• To work cooperatively to maintain a safe AWSA nationally certified ski site conducive to maximizing each skier's potential.

Everyone who skis at John's Lake or participates in skiing activities in any capacity, on or off the water, is required to have an Active (Insured) membership in USA Water Ski, and sign a HPWS Club Waiver .
