Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) Putnam County Local members Mark Semo and Mike O'Connor, joined by CSEA Political Action Coordinator Cody Peluso, react to the icy temperatures of Fishkill Creek during the Special Olympics Polar Plunge. O'Connor took the plunge in an Elmo costume. Across the state, CSEA members have been braving freezing water to take the Polar Plunge, raising money to help send athletes to the New York Special Olympics Summer Games. CSEA members this winter raised more than $10,000 to help support the summer games.
