Greater City Providence

Ever wanted to fling Jen Cole into the ocean?

You know, to see if she sinks or floats and confirm your suspicion that she’s a witch?

Well, she’ll fling herself into the cold waters of Virginia Beach next month if you help her raise money for the Virginia Special Olympics. Visit this page to make a pledge towards Jen’s $2,500 goal.

  • last call, people. It is still cold down there, only 48 degrees water temp today.

    Thanks for your support!

  • pfft, the water temp at Sandy Neck on the Cape is 48 in July. I still think there can be no such thing as a polar bear plunge in Virginia Beach.
