    = Hall of Fame Charter Member

    The Wisconsin Water Ski Hall of Fame was created to honor, in perpetuity, water skiing pioneers, competitive water skiers, officials and support personnel whose extraordinary accomplishments and contributions at all levels of the sport have brought lasting fame and attention to Wisconsin water skiing.

    Charter members of the Wisconsin Water Ski Hall of Fame were inducted in a special ceremony held at Tommy Bartlett Stadium in August, 1993. Each charter member inductee received a commemorative plaque, and Tommy Bartlett himself offered special commentary.
