    Ice Swimmer Kids
    Silver
    Interpretive Project
     
    In the ice swimmer club ASS Polar Bear on Amager Strand in Copenhagen the children have to endure the pain and get down in the icecold water. They have done that every day the whole winter since september last year, and it happens without sauna or hot chocolate. The club is an offer for the fresh kids in Amager Strand Day-Care and it has 10-year anniversary this year.
    Story: Ice Swimmer Kids
    Ice cold.
    When the young ice swimmers started the season there were 23 on the team. Now when the water is minus 1-2 degrees there are only 12 left.
