Polar Bear Swim

I just got the pictures from the polar bear swim our youth did last January. They're pretty funny so I thought I'd post them. The YM president in our ward has a pond/swimming pool in his back yard. So last year he cut a big hole in the ice and hosted a polar bear swim - although it wasn't so much a "swim" as it was a jump in and then climb out as fast as humanly possible. I'd always wanted to do one and am glad I could check it off my list. And yes, it was cold!
