Every year for some 35 years now, a “St. Louis tradition” has taken place called the New Years Day Polar Bear Water Ski. You are invited to participate this year as a Polar Bear Sponsor, Polar Bear Skier, Polar Bear Donor, and Polar Bear Spectator. Your cheers will be greatly appreciated during the New Years Day Polar Bear Water Ski down on the St. Louis Riverfront right under the Gateway Arch New Years Day.
We are asking you at this time to consider supporting MDWSA by becoming a Sponsor of the New Years Day Polar Bear Water Ski. Your sponsorship and participation will make it possible for us to continue to grow this organization, purchase specialized adaptive water ski equipment, and provide adaptive water ski clinic(s) in 2011. Water ski equipment for the disabled is specialized gear and quite expensive. Each specialized water ski board costs $2000.
Those who cannot become a sponsor, please consider making a Gift to MDWSA for your Tax savings.  Please find a Sponsorship Page outlining the Giving Levels and Benefits, a Reply Form, and a Fact Sheet that summarizes our mission, core values, and philosophy behind our organization.
