9th Annual Polar Bear Plunge
DATE: January 1, 2013
This year will mark the 9th Annual Plunge ... January 1st at 11:00AM at Fairfax Beach in Bloomington. It’s a plunge into the frigid waters of Lake Monroe – and it’s a seriously fun time for all !!

The 2013 Polar Bear Plunge is a free event -- everyone is welcome! Certificates of Achievement will be awarded to all registered participants. We try to incorporate a new theme each year – this year the theme is vikings.

Cindy Duffy and Christy Duffy Paiement have been organizing this event since 2003 when Cindy was first diagnosed with bladder cancer. We're now "plunging" into our ninth year (which makes Cindy a 9 year survivor :)

Last year's event was far and away our biggest ever (it was a sunny morning -- a balmy 37 degrees and the water was a brisk 35 degrees). We had ~200 swimmers and another 75 people cheering us on (okay, well technically speaking, some of them were just laughing). In 2007 there were just three of us taking the plunge on a snowy, windy, freezing morning.

This year we will again have t-shirts for sale to commemorate the event .... the cost is $15. To be guaranteed a shirt this year I’ll need payment no later than December 30th. T-shirts will be white, long sleeved with our logo on the front and are available in S, M, L and XL. All proceeds from the t-shirt sales go to the Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network.

For more information contact Cindy at cindyduffygmail.com
