Baller LeonL Posted November 11, 2016 Baller Share Posted November 11, 2016 I had the opportunity once to have a short conversation with Mr. Meloon. He, his family and CC have been a great asset to water sports and have witnessed their Christian faith wonderfully. I dropped him a note after I got home and shortly received a hand written response from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Edbrazil Posted November 11, 2016 Baller Share Posted November 11, 2016 Born in 1917, he is older than water skiing itself (1922). Looking forward to him making it into the Century Club in a year. Used to meet him yearly at the Masters. Getting so there are lots of centenarians these days. Still is at least one person living who was born before 1900. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller EFW Posted November 11, 2016 Baller Share Posted November 11, 2016 I remember the monthly magazine. I still remember some of their stories. Will there be any other Meloons at CC after him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
