Polar Bear Dip Raises $17K Despite Blizzard
Despite a severe blizzard pushing the annual Polar Bear Dip to a new day, a dozen brave jumpers plunged into Alexandria’s Mill Pond in temperatures of -11 (feeling like -30 with fierce winds). The daring fundraiser, drawing participants even from Ottawa, raised $17,000 for the Glengarry Sports Hall of Fame. Amid shouts, shock, and a bit of icy fun, the event proved that a little winter courage can go a long way.
