Water Skiing Counselor

[Alan Rhodes]

For the folks that were at Balfour during the early Seventies- there was a water skiing counselor named Dave Dierre. Don’t remember where he was from but he had an accent. One time during a display in front of the entire camp, Dave water skied while sitting on a lawn chair, perched on top of a disc. It was the stuff of legend. He made a huge impression on the campers and staff. I think that he was trying to drum up interest- and it worked.
