Barry Rosenthal

Barry is the founder and director of the CampSafe Waterski Instructor's Course. He has been teaching waterskiing for over 30 years. He is in constant search of new teaching techniques, often finding them at some of the best ski schools in Orlando, Florida.

Gillian McDowell

Gillian was one of the first students at the Waterski Instructor's Course many years ago. Ever since that year, she has been involved as an examiner at the course. Gill is a slalom specialist but loves to teach the Beginner Two Lesson; the most important lesson in waterski instruction.

Michael Sherman

Michael has been a waterski instructor for close to 25 years. He has run ski departments for many years in a camp setting. Michael has been an examiner for several years, whenever his busy practice in Toronto allows. We are glad that Michael will be with us for the whole course this year. All participants would do well to be the kind of driver, instructor and exceptional person that Michael is. I an honoured to have him as an examiner and my friend.

Jessica Arshinoff

Jessica won't be with us as an Examiner this year. She has taken a job with Camp Northland and will be very busy at the time the course is taking place. However, it wouldn't surprise me if we see her down at the docks at some time. Her presence and insight is always welcome.

Jen Solish

Jen comes to us from many years teaching at Camp Northland where she ran the program. Her patience and easy going style are a great addition to our examiners. We are very pleased to have Jen with us this year.

Mark Abramowitz

Unfortunately Mark will not likely be with us this year. He is getting married (congratulations) and graduating (congratulations) and starting the next exciting phase of his life. We will miss him and he knows he is welcome any year he can make it to the course.

Mary Eileen Casey

Mary Eileen joined our team last year and she is a great addition. As a snow ski instructor, Mary Eileen has everything it takes to be a teachers's teacher. Her knowledge of what it takes to teach a sport is a great asset to our team. Her attention to detail and her great attitude made her presence at the course a great success for me as the Director, and for every participant who came in contact with her. We look forward to her being at the course this year.

Dale Stern

Dale had a great stay at Northland on ski staff from 2000 to 2004, including being head of skiing in 2003 and 2004. Dale is a slalom skier and barefooter (another member of the exclusive barefoot club). Dale's enthusiasm for the sport and most importantly for safe and efficient boat driving make him a welcome member of our team. Since Dale is no longer on staff at Northland, we can use him as an examiner. Dale has been with us for 3 years. Unfortunately Dale will not be in Canada during this years course.
