On Sunday, March 7th, a group of 13 Windy City Roller league members and family friends took part in the 10th Annual Chicago Polar Plunge benefiting Chicago Special Olympics programs. It was a record breaking year for the event, with over 1,700 participants willing to dunk themselves into the chilly waters of Lake Michigan to help raise over $325,000.

Donations are still accepted through April 15th, when prizes will be awarded to the team who raises the most money. Click here for the Windy City Rollers' fundraising page.
