The Timberbats are the waterski team of
Camp Timberlane. They are modeled after the world famous local ski
team, the Min-Aqua Bats. They perform about three shows each session,
one for Parents weekend, and two for girls camps in the
area.
The Timberbats perform approximately fifteen acts including the
five-man pyramid, the human caliopee, and the clown act. They also
have some more uncommon acts such as shoe-skiing. Shoe-skis are
approximately the size of cigar boxes, making for some treacherous
ski runs.
The Timberbats are fun to watch, as well as to participate in. All
skiers get a chance at the beginning of the year to try out. Old and
young skiers alike make the team, so every camper that feels able
should try out.
