What People Won't do for a Good Cause

That's what the Whitefish Penguin Plunge is all about -- raising money for the Special Olympics. This year 389 (crazy) people jumped off the ice into the freezing Whitefish Lake to raise over $52,000 for the Special Olympics. I'd prefer just to donate money.

But the event is very fun -- especially if you are spectating and taking pictures. Here are some of my favorites.

ACTION SHOTS:







































SOME GREAT COSTUMES:






(the theme for the festival was "Pescado Blanco South of the Border" which is why you see some Mexican costumes, including the Chili Peppers below)
















FREEZING!!







AND FACE MASKS:



































BEST COSTUME & ACTION SEQUENCE:


The "Ninjas" staged a ninja fight on the ice before twisting and turning their way into the freezing water. Good show!!
