Take the Penguin Plunge!

penguinplungeFor those polar bears in the area, Sunday will offer the opportunity to flaunt your lack of nerve receptors (or sanity) by jumping into the Hudson river at Memorial Park.  The forecast is for snow/sleet and a high of 33 degrees.  PERFECT to prove you are made of the right stuff.
