The Polar Plunge in Waseca, MN!

Miss Midwest and the Polar Plunge!

Building up the community... raising money for Habitat for Humanity!

This afternoon, I took a very cold plunge into Clear Lake in Waseca, MN.  It took about 45 mins just to make a hole in the ice for the plunge, but the turn out was wonderful and many people signed up with donations. There were about 65 people who plunged into the freezing lake, raising about $2,500 for Habitat for Humanity.  The community came together and had so much fun playing on the lake, sharing stories and drinking hot chocolate. 

Thanks to all the participants who helped sponsor the plunge and Habitat for Humanity!
