If you find yourself driving around the section of Route 11 that hugs Alton Bay at around 3 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 23, you’re likely to notice a three-tiered human pyramid gliding atop the hopefully calm water. They’ll be wearing blue sequins, exuding a sort of synchronized skiing vibe reminiscent of a 1950s Esther Williams movie — complete with old-school wooden skis.

This southern tip of Lake Winnipesaukee has a history of hosting — and hoisting — show skiers. From 1954 through the mid-’70s, its namesake water ski club delighted Lakes Regioners. Looking to rekindle a dormant pastime, Alton Bay’s Water Bandstand Committee approached Maine Attraction in 2019.

The show is open to the public and lasts about 45 minutes, featuring roughly 25 skiers from Maine Attraction.
