Friends and supporters.  I've been doing the Polar Plunge for 15 years. 

I do this because I've been friends with people with special needs since childhood through school, church, 4-H, and my community.  Looking back, I was disappointed that there was so little support for this community.  When I moved to Rochester, I discovered the amazing organization called Special Olympics and connected with a number of Olympians.  It is an organization that deserves our support. 

I'd like your help to raise at least another $3,625 this year.  Join me in donating please.  Special Olympians deserve all we can give them.  The program provides joy, friendship, exercise, and so much more for the participants and their families.  Every dollar helps.  Please join me in giving today!  

p.s. - if you read this far, my costume is part of "The faces of Robin Williams." I'm dressing as the Genie from Aladdin :)
