Jet ski racers from across U.S. will make splash on Morse Lake

Morse Lake will be the site of the Indiana Insurance Solutions Midwest National event for jet ski racing on Saturday. Sept. 10 and Sunday, Sept. 11.

The event is the first of its kind hosted by Great Lakes Watercross and sanctioned by the International Jet Sports Boating Association. As an open event, Indiana Insurance Solutions Midwest National will accept additional competitors at greatlakeswatercross.com/Events/midwest-nationals.

Event organizers anticipate racers and families from around the country to attend. Athletes will race jet skis on a closed course with the variable water conditions that Morse Lake provides. Closed course jet ski racing is similar to motocross where participants navigate around buoys on a one-half mile to three-quarter mile racetrack. Race classes based upon age are scheduled for juniors through masters (age 50 and over).

There is no cost for spectators to attend with viewpoints at Morse Park & Beach, 19777 Morse Park Lane, Noblesville. Event times are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 10, and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 11.
