The 43rd annual Olcott Polar Bear Swim for Sight. No ice, but cold air temperature and a stiff wind off of the lake made for a cold day as 787 swimmers braved the lake to raise money for the Olcott Lions Club. The tailgaters were out in force, with far more buses than I have ever seen at this event, and friendly offers for food and libations everywhere I went. For more information on this great event, the Olcott Lions Club website is here:
