nikongod Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Hello All I thought it would be fun to take the Polar Bear swim at Coney Island this year. Its been on my bucket list for a while. They are raising money for Camp Sunshine - a camp for Children with life-threatening illnesses and their families and I would appreciate it if anyone could donate some money to them through my page. https://www.crowdrise.com/AriFriedman I don't think I have told you this, but I went to camp every summer from when I was 6 weeks old (my father was the camp director) until I was 20, doing everything from filling diapers, to being a camper, working in the kitchen, being a counselor, and working on the high-ropes course. All of it was pretty amazing and it would be cool to help someone else experience that. Thanks Polar Bear Club: http://www.polarbearclub.org/ Camp Sunshine: https://www.campsunshine.org/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voltron Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I'll be pitching in too, Ari. I loved my camp experiences, although I think I was something like to 12-14 when I went. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guzziguy Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 In, though I must admit that the Crowdwise experience leaves a lot to be desired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikongod Posted January 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 Thanks to everyone who chipped in for this! I made my goal, and went in the ocean. It was cold. Drying off was actually painful. Once I got dried off I realized I was not really all that cold. Then I went in the water again. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
