Steeple

Take the 2012 Polar Plunge!
Take the Polar Plunge this February to help end homelessness and build affordable housing in Beverly! Help raise money for RiverHouse, Beverly’s homeless shelter, and the North Shore Community Development Coalition by joining
FBC’ers (like Anna Mei Gubbins) on Superbowl Sunday, February 5th, 2012 on Woodbury Beach at Lynch Park in Beverly. All those wishing to take part in this fun and frigid event should sign-up and register for their online donation page

at http://www.firstgiving.com/nscdc/polar-plunge-2012. Everyone else (you sissies!) can stay tuned to their FBC Bulletins to find out who they can sponsor in the coming weeks. Either way, your participation is needed and greatly appreciated!

So be a part of the 2012 Polar Plunge! Sponsor, cheer, jump, or wait on the beach holding towels, blankets and warm clothes for the plungers! Any way you choose you to participate - just participate and be a part of this important event.
For more information please visit the Polar Plunge’s official 2012 website at www.firstgiving.com/nscdc/polar-plunge-
2012
or contact Plunge coordinator Jackie Giordano by e-mail at Jackie@northshorecdc.org or at 978-825-4016. All proceeds from this event will benefit River House Men’s Homeless Shelter and programs run by the North Shore Community Development Coalition. All are welcome to join in the post-plunge celebration at the Vittori Rocci Post in Beverly for refreshments, awards, and commemorative (dry!) t-shirts.
