We're getting an early start on the 2010 Polar Bear Plunge! Myself and the rest of the Zero Gravity crew will be raising money for the special olympics. Each plunger must raise a minimum of $75.00.

Thanks to Phil from Oznium.com, as well as a few other Oznium forum members, I got a chance to jump last year. As a small way of saying thank you, I've included Oznium's logo on our Polar Bear Plunge page.

Once again, I'm looking to the Oznium community for support! Last year, Zero Gravity raised $665.00. This year, we'd like to hit four digits.

What's it like? Check out our video from last year!! http://www.vimeo.com/3449225

Please, click on my page below, and make an online pledge! Help me jump into the freezing Minnesota waters!

Damn it's already been a year since the last one?

If money and my position at this job weren't of any importance I would definitely be there.
goodluck

Wow Phil! Thank you very much. You were a BIG help last year too! I appreciate it.

Our goal is to get a bigger jump team, and try to make it even MORE epic than last year. Haven't exactly figured out how, yet... but just you wait!

Also, we might be getting t-shirts made. Do you have a .PSD or .EPS file of the oznium logo?

lol... that might be kind of fun.

We're looking at getting some t-shirts made with sponsor logos on em for the plungers this year. So it'll have to be our "entrance" and "jump" that we get creative with. We've got some ideas cookin.

Next year, we might do costumes though.

Anyone else willing to spare five or ten bucks?

Just the cost of a sub at subway, or a mocha at caribou, or a #1 at McDonalds.

Anything is greatly appreciated. I promise, the video for the 2010 jump will be WELL worth your donation!! biglaugh.gif
