The Beads and Booze Bar Crawl, which took place in Virginia-Highland, captured the spirit of Mardi Gras partying. People who took part could easily pretend like they were in New Orleans during this bar crawl.

Saturday, February 16th is the 4th Annual Polar Plunge at Lake Lanier Islands Beach & Water Park. Are you “Freezin’ for a Reason”? The Polar Plunge is the largest fundraising effort benefiting Special Olympics. Many states across the nation participate in this annual event through the efforts of their Law Enforcement Torch Run program. Its purpose is to simply raise funds to enhance Special Olympics’ mission. Participants collect pledges in exchange for the opportunity to jump into the icy waters of Lake Lanier. All proceeds collected by “plungers” will benefit the athletes of Special Olympics Georgia. Prizes will be awarded for the best costume, highest fundraiser, highest fundraising team, and more. For those who do not love the Polar Bear habitat, they will have areas to keep you warm – such as heated areas, warm concessions, and fun souvenirs.
