Vintage Photos from the 60's - submitted by Ken Cannon of Minden, Nevada
Ken Cannon scanned the original 1960 50th State Water Ski Tournament event program. Hawaii became a state in 1959. This was the first "state" water ski tournament held in May of 1960. The inside cover of the program spells out that the "Federation" was comprised of three clubs. The schedule of events spans two pages of the program. Kenny put them together and then added it to the end of the PDF.
