Photos: Friends of the Shelter Island Library Turkey Plunge
From a giant squid to a mysterious team from Australia to a Shelter Island Christmas tree and a great showing from the Carey family, Shelter Islanders in costume made a mad dash for the icy waters off of Crescent Beach Nov 24 for the ninth annual Friends of the Shelter Island Library Turkey Plunge.
Balmy temperatures in the high 40s made it a relatively pleasant day for a dip, after record low temperatures on Thanksgiving and continued chill on Black Friday. The plunge, which is held each year the Saturday after Thanksgiving, benefits the Friends of the Shelter Island Library’s programs on behalf of the library.
