Polar plunge group grows, braves icy lake waters
Members of the Penrose family tried to keep warm by layering bathrobes and beach towels on top of their swimsuits. They, along with 78 others, dressed for a day at the beach and braved cold New Year’s Day temperatures to take a plunge in Lake Monroe. Bloomington’s seventh annual Polar Bear Plunge took place at 11 a.m. on Jan. 1.
