Polar Bear Plunge planned for Pinehouse Lake
People at Pinehouse Lake will be getting ready to take a chilly dip this coming Saturday as part of the 5th annual Polar Bear Plunge.
The plunge starts at 1 p.m. but there will be a few other activities leading up to it, starting at about 12 p.m.
Organizer Martine Smith, with help from her volunteers, is looking forward to the fun event. Funds raised will benefit the community, to help with the costs for cancer treatment medical trips and for various youth initiatives.
“We have a lot of cancer patients in the community that can’t afford to go out every week for chemo, so we provide funding for them,” Smith said.
