With Your Help, We Made History!!!
Dear Jo­Ann, THE FROZEN CLAM RAISES $10,000 FOR
MENTORING...
Thanks to you, the 5th annual Frozen Clam Dip featuring the World's First­Ever
Obstaplunge was a huge success, raising $10,000 to support youth mentoring in Rhode
Island. Nearly 200 people participated and hundreds more looked on from the sea wall.

Thank you to the dedicated people who braved the frigid water, our sponsors (see the
list below and visit their websites. Let's support them for supporting the cause!), dozens of
volunteers, and most importantly the man who had a vision of what this event could be:
Ryan McGowan of Laid­back Fitness.

Ryan is a mentor, a business owner, a husband, father, son and brother and is so dedicated
to the cause of mentoring that he spends countless hours of what little spare time he has
preparing for this event each year. For a little taste of what it's like for him take a look
at this video from Ryan's perspective on New Year's Day.
