12 of us (though sadly only 1 other kayaker besides me) jumped into the not-so-tropical waters of Lake Calhoun on Saturday. The water was a bit chilly, but the day was a blast. We started with some beverages at Bar Abilene Saturday morning before jumping on the shuttle bus and heading to Thomas Beach.
Our team was named Shaking, Not Stirred. In keeping with the Bond theme, the guys all had tuxedo t-shirts and the girls had "Bond Girl" shirts. Next year, we'll have to try to get some fancy heating gadgets from Q before jumping in... This year we had to settle for the hot tubs that were graciously provided by the Plunge sponsors.
After plunging, we headed over to Famous Dave's for some nice, hot comfort food. It was a great end to a fun day.
Together our team raised over $1600 for Special Olympics. Thanks to all those who donated - S.O. is a great cause.
Now, who's in for next year?
