The 2007 Polar Bear Plunge

February 3, 2007

This is the 2^nd annual Polar Plunge. The Polar Bear Plunge was started as a venue for swimmers who miss the Mid-Penn qualifying time. Here, those swimmers have a chance to compete in a championship meet. Schools from all over the Mid-Penn are invited and this year, nearly 170 athletes participated.

Northern High School is proud to host the Polar Bear Plunge and we look forward to many more in the future.

Thank you to our directors, Chuck Moore and Bill Resser.
