    Guess who’s doing the MN Polar Plunge next February!? 🥶❄️💦 Yep, that’s right! Dan ( @pailofperch ) and I need to raise at least $75 each to plunge and would love to raise our team’s goal of $500!

    The Polar Plunge is the biggest fundraiser for the Special Olympics of Minnesota. All funds raised go help the Special Olympics provide year-round training and services to thousands of athletes with intellectual disabilities across the state.

    Sponsors can donate via credit card or PayPal at our secure team link at https://reg.plungemn.org/team/thecherryicees! Sponsors can also send cash/checks directly to me or Dan and we will process the donation electronically via the site. Thanks for your support and we look forward to freezing our moon off!

    You know, I put my hands in the water at a local lake the other day… I’m starting to wonder what I’ve gotten myself into! 😬🥶🥶

    Sharon, I also donated.

    FYI – that little jar of special apple spice you slipped me during the “hog haul” helped get me smiling a little more than normal a few weeks ago.

    You two are freaking nuts!

    My idea of a polar plunge is setting the heat to 60 degrees and covering with a soft blankie.
