•Winterama Polar Plunge on Lake Minnewaska
•Chili Cook-off inside the Ballroom at Lakeside
•Kids’ Indoor Scavenger Hunt inside Lakeside Ballroom

All events held on Lake Minnewaska are dependent on ice conditions, it was stated last week.
Register now for Polar Plunge
Registration to take the “plunge” into Lake Minnewaska is now open, according to Heidi Polzin, 2024 Waterama Vice Commodore.
Jumpers are asked to raise $150, because the Polar Plunge is a major fundraiser for Glenwood Waterama. Jumpers must be 16 years and older and dressing up and skits are encouraged, but should be family friendly, it was stated.
Anyone interested in “taking the plunge,” should contact Polzin by emailing Polzin at hapolzin@gmail.com or by calling 615-216-4247. Jumpers will receive an informational letter, pledge form and liability release form. The forms, money and a short bio for the Polar Plunge announcers should be turned in by Wednesday, Feb. 7, Polzin said.
