Most area residents may be sick of winter by now, but on Saturday, February 7, the California Area School District Foundation hopes people will embrace the freezing temperatures and jump into the Mon River to help provide scholarships and grants for its students.

The second annual "Frosty Frolic – Winter River Romp" is open to all ages. The registration fee for an individual is $10, or $20 for a "wade-in-only" option. All registrants will receive an event t-shirt. Teams of river rompers are also being formed.
Event organizers will offer prizes at three levels for the most money raised by various groups, including Cal U students, California High School students, and alumni and community participants. Prizes for best costumes will also be awarded.
The event will be held on Water Street in Coal Center where changing tents will be available. Registration for the frosty fun begins at 1 p.m. with costume judging at 1:20 p.m. and plunging commencing at 1:30 p.m. Participants are not required to dunk their heads in the water.
The Foundation is also seeking sponsors at various levels to help offset expenses of insurance, tents and prizes.
Registration forms, pledge sheets, sponsor forms and releases are available by contacting Lisa Buday at 724-938-1355 or sending an email to monriverromp@gmail.com.
