My personal message:

On February 13, 2010, I, AKA "Pee Pee and the Golden Plunger", have committed for the third year in a row to grin & "bear" it and jump into the icy lake at Versailles State Park for a truly worthy cause - the athletes of Special Olympics Indiana-Ripley Ohio Dearborn Counties. 

I know – you’re probably getting cold just thinking about it! But the cold that I will feel is temporary…the positive impact this will have on the lives of thousands of children and adults with intellectual disabilities will last a lifetime!
 
I have been working very hard to raise funds to gain awareness for Special Olympics, and it all comes down to this!
 
I have set a personal goal - to become a "Super Plunger" - to do so I must raise $4,000 and not only plunge at the Versailles Plunge but also at the Plunge in Indianapolis on February 27th - I will then be inducted to into the Hall of Fame of  "Super Plungers"! -and I need your help to reach it! 
 
So no, I’m not asking you to take the Plunge alongside, but instead, I am asking you to make a donation to Special Olympics Indiana on behalf of me taking the 2010 Versailles Polar Plunge.  Any amount would be appreciated – it all goes to a wonderful cause, and every little bit gets me that much closer to my goal.
 
If you prefer mail, you can make a check payable to “SOIN” and return it to me at 429 Manchester St., Aurora, IN 47001. 
 
If you want to learn more about this wacky winter event, visit www.soindiana.org to find out all the chilly details. Think warm thoughts for me as February 13th approaches. I will do my best to “Be the Bear” and make my supporters proud!
 
Thank you!!!
