Maine Attraction is the only water ski show team in the state that puts on regular shows for the community and beyond.

These shows in July are free and spectacular. This is a non-profit, family-oriented organization. The team has put on unique, entertaining, and skilled water ski shows for over 30 years.

It's a good idea to get to Number One Pond at least a half hour early for the show, so that you can snag good parking and good seating. There is pre-show entertainment that starts a half-hour before showtime! Number One Pond is on William Oscar Emery Drive in Sanford, Maine (down the hill behind Hannaford). Bring a blanket or chair to sit on!

Remember, shows are FREE!

Since this is a non-profit, they gladly accept donations to help pay for gas, upkeep of equipment and boats, new costumes, and more! If a show needs to be canceled or postponed due to weather, an announcement will be made on Facebook two hours before showtime.
