Polar Bear PLUNGE Presentation Kristen Eastland
Harding's 1st ever Polar Bear Plunge on Sunday, February 12, 2012 was a huge splash in very cold water. Cherry Road students, staff, and friends raised over $6,700.00 to go towards Ms. Kristen Eastland's medical expenses. Forty-two students paid $25 or more to plunge, plus, they raised money for some favorite teachers to plunge. The most individual plunge money raised by students was for Mrs. Cathy Donaldson to plunge. The students also raised money for Amy Murphy, Dana Welty, Dustin Denzin (dove in 4 times!!), Gray Yates, Jeanne Chester, Justin Banker, Kevin Starks, Leanna Hawley, and Tim Stafford to take the cold plunge. Glory to God for blessing the Harding family's gift of love to a great lady, Ms. Eastland!
