Water Skiing at The Mere, Scarborough

Week 41 Water Skiing

Years since I have taken a walk around The Mere at Scarborough and what a joy. As kids we used to go to The Mere only now and again as there was always trouble with some of the Edgehill and Newcoln Road kids, who saw us as invading their area. All that appears to have changed, new housing has replaced the run-down council houses, plenty of people of all ages fishing on the lake, and even a Council employee litter picking on a Saturday! Families walking around the lake, a nice cafe and much to my surprise, Scarborough Water Skiing Club were still performing on the second lake. Transformed into a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle and with a backdrop of mature trees a colourful experience in the autumn.
