Raising Money For Charities
Jonah M. Kessel / Tahoe Daily Tribune The Nevada State Parole and Probation team, who called themselves the "Jail Birds" dressed the part in black and white stripes for Saturday's Polar Plunge at Zephyr Cove. More than 300 people dove into the chilly waters of Lake Tahoe in a fundraiser for the Special Olympics.

Nearly 30 teams collected about $40,000 from sponsors to participate in the swim. The only thing required was that team members had to put more than their toes into the 39-degree lake.

“Cold, cold, cold,” said Heather Grim, whose Carson City team of Nevada State Parole and Probation members jumped into Tahoe’s waters for a minute-long icy bath.

“We came out because the Special Olympics is such a great organization. We wanted to show them our support,” Grim said.

Sipping on hot cups of coffee to maintain warmth before and after the event, the parole and probation team, dressed in black and white-striped jail jumpsuits, were among scores of people who came in costumes.

The “JailBird” team consisted of Grim, Nancy Fraser, Karen Finley, Tassie Brooks and Ernie Richards.
