Journal photos by Natalie Johnson By NATALIE JOHNSON nata/ie@masoncoun corn About 30 people jumped into the 48-degree water of the Hood Canal in Union Saturday, raising $5,000 for local emergency services. "I thought it was a good turnout," said organizer Don Minor. "Unfortunately we had that rain all day." The event, organized by the Hood Canal Lions Club, took place for the second consecutive year at the dock at the Alderbrook Resort and Spa in Union. In pre- vious years, divers jumped from the Port of Hoodsport dock. The Lions Club donates money raised from the event each year to programs such as the Mason County Sheriffs Office K-9 Unit, dive team, search and rescue, chaplain programs, and Mason County Fire District 6 in Union. The plunge also raises money for the Lions Club International's sight and hearing programs. The Lions Club awards the top fundraisers for the event in three categories -- emergency worker, com- munity member and youth younger than 18. Jadyn Redmann, 11, was the top fundraiser for the fourth consecutive year, raising $1,450. The Mason County Sheriffs Office won the emergency worker cat- egory with $800 and Justin Gravatt, the Alderbrook Golf and Yacht C1Qb's pro- fessional golfer, raised the most of any community member with about $260, Minor said. Major sponsors included The Tides Restaurant, Taco- ma Power, Green Diamond Resource Co. and KMAS Radio.
