Help out Special Olympics.

**Ted** · 01-19-2009 09:36 PM

The Chesapeake Bay Powerboat Association has committed to do the Maryland State Police Polar Bear Plunge on Saturday to benefit Special Olympics. We have a great group of guys and gals that are going to jump in the under 40 degree water around Noon to help raise money for this great cause. We are close to our goal of $10,000 so I am asking for a little help from my SO pals. I was supposed to do this too before I boogered up my arm, but I will definitely be there on land to support them. ( I'm gonna help dry off the girls

) If you click this link:

It will take you directly to the team page, either pick a plunger(ME) or do a general team donation-you can use a credit card or Paypal. Please donate to this worthwhile cause, virtually all the money raised goes directly to benefit the very special athletes of the Special Olympics. If you have never attended an SO (hey!) meet, try to do so. You have never seen so much unbridled love and enthusiasm as you will with the Special Olympics. I promise I will not be back hawking anything else, I just wanted to go the extra distance on this one since I can't plunge. Thanks, the kids really appreciate it!

Great cause folks. I donated 25 bucks (Scott Smith-He's a member here). These people are going to be jumping into the Chesapeake Bay. Talk about major shrinkage!!!!!!!!!!

Ted are you going to go and watch? You know that they are going to have beer there, right???

**Ted** · 01-19-2009 10:16 PM

I'm going, and if my Doc says I'm okay tomorrow, I'll plunge too. The beer will help if my liver function ever starts back up again after last week.

**Ted** · 01-20-2009 12:03 PM

Thanks Mark, I appreciate it. Doc gave me the okay so I guess my fat ass is getting wet on Saturday

**Ted** · 01-23-2009 12:42 PM

Okay peeps, tomorrow is the day, and the water temp is 32.9 degrees F. I am going to shrink down to stecz size because of this so give me some lovin on the contribution side so at least the deformity will be worth it

**Chris** · 01-23-2009 01:08 PM

Is Craig in? I've got my checkbook out.

You're wearing Speedo's, correct?

The rest of you sorry SOB's need to get in on this. This is Special Olympics and these guys are friends of the site- and key people in making this place tick behind the scenes. And I don't need to tell you how important Special Olympics is...
