White Bear Water Ski Company Presentation
Join us to hear the story of the White Bear Water Ski Company of Bald Eagle from Dennis Zerwas, Jr. grandson of the company’s founder, Tom Weinhagen. Today these skis and other recreational products are highly sought after collectibles and it all started in White Bear. This is a follow up presentation to the one given in February of 2013. It will include some new stories and photos. This is one event you don't want to miss! Seating is limited so be sure to get there early.
FREE event but donations are welcome. This project was funded in part or in whole with money from the vote of the people of Minnesota on November 4, 2008 which dedicated funding to preserve Minnesota's art and cultural heritage.
