2016 Brandywine polar plunge

On February 20, 2016, Tim Rayne carried on a Longwood Rotary Club tradition by participating in the Brandywine Polar Plunge.

With air temperature a comforatable 50 degress but water temp a chilly 30, Tim waded and then dove into the Brandywine River with a few hundred arguably crazy people.

It was all for a great cause with the proceeds benefiting the Brandywine Red Clay Alliance, a non-profit committing to protecting and preserving Pennsylvania land and waterways. The Longwood Rotary Club alone raised over $1,000 to support the Alliance leading to the Club winning a Golden Plunger Award.

Tim was supported at the plunge by family and fellow Longwood Rotarians.
