Weather conditions were perfect for a polar bear on Saturday. West Lafayette had about an inch of new fallen snow and windchills in the teens. With the Wabash River as our backdrop, 15 brave souls took a dip in an inflatable pool to raise more than $5,000 for the Public Schools Foundation.
Above is a picture of me and Annie James from K-105. She was truly blue, head to toe. I sported my 'Jo the Plunger' outfit. I won the Golden Plunger Award for showing the most enthusiasm for the event. I also raised the most money (more than $1,000) Thanks to everyone who contributed! Julie Krizen (fellow WLFI reporter) won best costume. The Florida girl dress as sunshine. Below are a few clips of our plunge. I can't believe Annie went barefoot!
