The Bud Light Jet Jam was Saturday at Rotary Beach. The event was presented by Tim Gewecke, Kary Austin, Robert Sand and Mike Yellich.
One of the first “super stars” of Jet Ski Racing, Larry “The Ripper” Rippenkroeger, presented the first Hero and Legend Award to Kelley Borgen, former Pro Women’s Champion. Kelley was the first Canadian to race in the United States in the Pro class and win.
Racing continues today until 4 p.m.
