FF's Gerry Vessels, Matt Johnson, and Matt Long took the plunge into the icy waters of the Atlantic Ocean on Saturday January 16th. FF Vessels, Johnson, and Long raised over $3,000 for the Special Olympics and the team raised over $15,000. Several other members of the Wildwood FD volunteered to conduct the water rescue standby during the event. DFC Speigel, BFC E. Troiano Jr., Captain Troiano III, FF Cripps, FF Dunn, and FF Kobierowski were in the water making sure that all plungers had a fun and safe time. Nice job by all involved for a great cause!! |
