Here in Minnesota we are so enthralled with water, whether it be in lakes or rivers, we will sometimes set up bleachers on the shore to handle the crowds that gather just to sit and watch the water go by. (And to think that some people think nothing exciting ever happens in Minnesota!)
Actually these are the bleachers at Neer Park for the Little Crow Ski Team shows http://www.littlecrowskiteam.com/ which take place on Friday evenings in the summers. The Little Crow Ski Team has won numerous awards, including best overall team at the national competition. Currently they are rated #1 in the country in ski jumps. Many of our local skiers go on to work professionally at other ski shows around the country, including Cypress Gardens in Florida and Tommy Bartlett's Ski Show at Wisconsin Dells. Not bad for a little town (pop 1000) in west central Minnesota.
