Shawnee Polar Plunge

JUNCTION (WSIL)---Freezing for a reason, that's the theme of this year's Shawnee Polar Plunge.

The Friends of the Shawnee will host a polar plunge coming up as a fundraiser to help improve the Shawnee National Forest.

Afterwards, the group will discuss issues like removing graffiti.

The group thought the fundraiser would be a fun way to get people involved.

"You know we just decided to do something to raise some money and some awareness. We're calling it freezing for a reason and we're hoping to raise some money for the Shawnee National Forest," said Steve Melville, a board member for the Friends for the Shawnee National Forest. 

You can take the plunge on March 5th at Pounds Hollow Lake.

Donations are not required, but encouraged.Â
