This is the time
of the year that your BNI directors and ambassadors will be asking you
to contribute to the Maryland Special Olympics Polar Bear Plunge. Please
support a great cause.
Polar Bear
Plunge!!
It is my great pleasure
to announce to you once again the charitable partnership between BNI
and Special Olympics Maryland, a year-round sports training program
devoted to Maryland s children and adults with mental retardation.
The cornerstone of this
relationship will be our support and sponsorship of the Twelfth Annual
Maryland State Police Polar Bear Plunge, which will be held at Sandy
Pt. State Park on January 26, 2008. For those of you who are unfamiliar
with this event, participants take a very chilly (and very quick!) dip
in the Chesapeake Bay in order to raise funds for the 10,000 athletes
who compete in Special Olympics Maryland. Last years event attracted
over 1,500 Plungers and raised more than $1,000,000 for the organization
and BNI M ary land Members contributed $20,000. Our GOAL this year is
to raise $25,000! And we need your help!
