WARSAW — Warsaw’s reputation as a premiere host of water ski tournaments has reached new heights.
Representatives of Lake City Skiers learned Sunday it was chosen to host the 2027 World Show Ski championship overseen by the International Waterski and Wakeboard Federation.
The announcement was made at the end of an international tournament in Australia on Sunday and was made in association with the International Olympic Committee.
The tournament will be in mid-September of 2027 and some of the teams will likely arrive a week ahead to prepare.
Warsaw was believed to have been among at least two other communities in the United States vying to host the International event.
Warsaw and Hidden Lake have gained recognition in recent years after hosting several regional and national tournaments on the lake southwest of the US 30 and Ind. 15 interchange.
