Friends and neighbors will be sponsored to plunge into the freezing water of the Hudson River to raise funds for programs that were recently cut from the Irvington Parks and Recreation’s budget.

This event is open to all in the community.

There will be emergency crews, ambulances and the Irvington Fire Department’s frigid water rescue team on-site during the event.
