Colorado MMA ring girl Jessica Boisseaux said on Feb. 2 in an exclusive interview with Long Island MMA Examiner Eric Holden that her polar plunge fundraiser earned a whopping $2,100 for charity.
"Tonight was a success with a total of $2,100 raised, not to mention the $500 in my online portions," Boisseaux said. "I need to thank a few people who played a key role in getting this going, Anne Whipple, Vernon Earwood, Cliff Maisch Nicki, Michael Mcknight, Brian Mcknight, Clavins bar and Grill, as well as everyone who came out and invited friends!"
Boisseaux explained that some of the items auctioned off included: a Denver Nuggets NBA basketball jersey, an Anthony Pettis autograph, two shirts and an iPhone case from Island Tat, autographed Peyton Manning pictures and a one-year membership to Fusbox MMA.
Other items were: a training session with Maureen Riordan, photo sessions with elite photographers, a custom cake from Tori Black, V.I.P. cards to Ellis Automotive, sweat pants from Mass Destruction, an autographed shirt from Josh Cavan, a one-night stay at the Lumber Barron Inn, two tickets to the comedy murder mystery dinner at Lumber Baron Inn, a Jasminka Cive autograph, two tickets to a BJJ tournament and kickboxing lessons from a professional.
Boisseaux, Colorado's 2012 Ring Girl of the Year, is well-known for her charitable efforts. She works for multiple programs for kids with special needs, and also serves on the board for the Global Down Syndrome Foundation.
Her fundraiser, held on Feb. 1 at Clavin's Bar and Grill, raised money for a polar plunge get together. MMA fans can check Boisseaux out on Twitter @jpzoomer.
