    This story is a bit old, but a good warning to remember.
    I know its an older story but this is what brought it back to my attention:

    PRESS RELEASE

    Brett Yager Ski-A-Thon:
    Make a pledge for Tyler Yager's college fund.
    This weekend at the H2Oz Training Center


    By now many of you know about the late Brett Yager's freak waterski accident down in Mexico. You can find an article about Brett and the accident in the current issue of WaterSki Magazine. In brief, Brett, one of waterskiing's familiar and beloved faces, had a freak accident where he fell and was somehow tangled up in the rope/handle and lost his life. He left behind his two sons, Tyler and Justin, who loved him very much. I had the opportunity to meet Tyler at the Nationa Waterski Championships this weekend and discovered that there is not a nicer, more respectful guy around, and no one more deserving of this help. Thanks to Gordon Rathbun of Ski Paradise, on August 23rd and 24th there will be Ski-A-Thons across the country to raise money for Tyler (16) and Justin Yager (20) and most importantly for Tyler's education fund. We will be participating at Oz, site of our H2Oz Training Center in Charleston, South Carolina, on Sunday August 24th. Below you will see a list of which skiers will be skiing at our site. You can pledge a dollar amount based on the details of each skier. If you have interest, please email us or call 843.793.4470 and let us know.
