Twenty-one brave ambassadors helped raise almost $3000 for Kootenay Co-op Radio and the Friends of Kootenay Lake Stewardship Society. At least fifty others participated by taking a dip in their favorite body of chilly water.
It was a big success thanks to our amazing community!
Thanks to over 100 people who supported our great Ambassadors!
We wish you all the best for the New Year - may it bring you joy, happiness, and time with the people you love.
The winners for Best Pledger, Prizes of participation and Best costume will have announced during Kootenay Morning on Friday, January 8th 2021 from 8am to 9am.
