17 years ago, a small group of the Natural Resources Council of Maine's staff & supporters plunged into the Gulf of Maine to raise funds & support for our work to mitigate climate change. We've since added a "warm up" 5K run/walk and carry out the tradition at our annual Polar Bear Dip & Dash, NRCM's largest fundraiser. We hope you'll join us this year by dipping, dashing, and donating to this event!
