The Hawks Soar

The Egyptians had it easy. They only had to build their pyramids with bricks and mortar on land. Try doing that with 23 people on water skis going 35 miles per hour. But the Ski Hawks did it successfully for the first time ever at their annual Fourth of July water show at Lake Mohawk in Sparta. Residents were treated to many spectacular feats as the Ski Hawks entertained the crowd with several acts they plan to showcase at a regional competition in Massachusetts at the end of the month.
