Call me brave or call me bonkers, but I have committed to plunge into frigid water to show my support for the over 30,000 Special Olympics athletes in Kentucky and Ohio. Your donation will not only force me into the icy cold water but will also help support Special Olympics in their efforts to provide year-round sports training and competition opportunities to children and adults with intellectual disabilities.  Through sports, Special Olympics athletes build confidence and self-esteem, and develop skills they can take off the field and into their everyday lives.  Help me create a world in which all people with intellectual disabilities have a chance to be accepted and respected in their communities. 

 Don’t be a pansy!  I’m jumping in ice water in February to raise money for a good cause.  The least you can do is drop a few bucks and donate to the cause!  The folks work their butts off to train and prepare themselves for competition.  Open your damn wallet and give them some encouragement!
