FMake a Wish Foundation in Long Beach Long Island New York...Join the Polar Bears and a Very COLD New York Feng Shui Consultant!
This Sunday is full of wonderful events! Super Bowl Sunday is here and is a time for friends and family to gather together, eat some wings and have a few drinks..they should just make it an official holiday. Are you ready?! It's that time of year again to go swimming with the Long Beach Long Island NY with the Polar Bear Club. All you need is a bathing suit and and a mind that has gone crazy.
Having the Polar Bear Club Swim on Superbowl Sunday is a special event. The New York Polar Bear Club was started by Kevin McCarthy and Pete Meyers, who sparked the idea to go swimming in frigid water. Today this is a fundraiser event that contributes to the Make A Wish Foundation.
The story goes, before Kevin and Pete watched the 1998 Superbowl game, they jumped into the Atlantic ocean for a quick dip. The following year they asked others to join them and use the money as a fundraiser for The Make a Wish Foundation.
People came. More and more every year and last year they broke a record in the amount of Attendees along the beautiful beaches of Long Beach NY. This year my son Adam Schumacher will again participate. Adam was also instrumental in another project we worked on together, Feng Shui for the Jones Manor in Bayville New York. Laura Cerrano, a Manhattan New York Feng Shui consultant will be in attendance.....and if she's VERY brave, take a "dip" herself!
The Beautiful Beaches of Long Beach Long Island New York
The Long Beach Polar Bear Swim is very special in that it makes wishes possible for other children living with life-threatening diseases. Paulie's spirit is especially alive every Super Bowl Sunday, when an ever growing community of family and friends join together to help make children's dreams come true through their support of the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
If you'd like to participate, please meet at the Boardwalk at Edwards/Riverside/Long Beach Blvd. in Long Beach, Long Island NY. The swim begins at 1 pm. If you can't stand the water but would like to help To donate online click here

Carole,
This is such a worthwhile event and has spread so far and wide...we have one here too. Good for Adam for participating! Are you serious that Laura is now going for a dip too? I hope we see some pics!

Hi Carole, I give anyone credit for doing that. Kudos to Adam and Laura for having the guts to do it! It is a worthwhile cause for sure :)
Jo and Jackie, Laura was supposed to go and film....she has thoughts of being able to participate but I'd honestly rather her get it on video. Adam did this last year....he said it's actually painful (I have no doubt) but it IS for a great cause. I'm hoping they beat the record again!
