Final Countdown to the Polar Plunge!
Wednesday… Thursday… Friday… Saturday!
Thanks to all of our sponsors so far! Aunt Rosie & Denny, Grandpa George, and Anonymous. Ahem. I know who you are but since you chose to sign it “anonymous”, I’ll keep the secret.
If you look at their team page here, http://somo.org/speedkin, you see they each have raised $70 for a team total of $210. Not too shabby for a trio of kids, right?
Ah, but it gets even better. Their 4-H club has agreed to donate their “brag box” money in the kids’ names! How cool is that? They’ll bring a check the day of the plunge so it won’t show up until after the final tally.
And that’s still not all. Steve’s employer, Titan Wheel, has written out a big ol’ check in the kids’ names, also to be presented the day of the plunge. I know it’s just a monetary drop in the hat to such a huge company but I’m mightily impressed all the same that they’d take the time to do such a thing.
As of right now, the kids have raised over $1000 for the Special Olympics. *proud mommy moment*
Of course, there’s still time to donate if you’re so inclined. Maybe some stragglers will push that total even higher by Saturday morning!

Good luck to all today. Be sure and get a good breakfast into the participants.
Thanks, Anita! They had a great (but cold!) time.
