The annual Frosty Frolic is back, but will be virtual throughout the month, so participants can help a local school district while avoiding the typical âshiver in the riverâ.
Since 2015, the Frosty Frolic has helped raise money for the California Area School District Foundation with participants jumping in the Monongahela River.
The event normally draws between 50 and 75 jumpers and raised around $13,000 last year.
Walt MacFann, the foundationâs board president, said the money raised goes toward students scholarships that range between $250 and $2,000 as well as grants for district teachers who are doing special projects. Last year, the foundation awarded a $10,000 technology grant to the school district to help transition to online schooling during the pandemic.
