As frigid ocean waves battered the shore, a few intrepid souls happily jumped into the sea this past weekend in support of the annual Drowned Hogs fundraiser that benefits the good works of Wellspring MultiService Center. The event usually attracts scores of costumed swimmers, but this year participants can choose their own time and place to take the plunge as strict COVID-19 protocols remain in place. Representing the Drowned Hogs in these photos are Riley Harte Wellspring President and CEO Vinny Harte, Eric Fransoso and Nate Taylor, sporting a bat mask, cavorts in the rough waves.
