James Scott’s Cold Plunge Fundraiser

FREEZIN’ FOR A REASON WCCB - Charlotte Meteorologist James Scott made a deal with his viewers. If it didn’t snow at least one inch in Charlotte on Friday, January 10th, he would jump in Lake Norman on Sunday. Officially, Charlotte only received a half-inch of flakes, so James is going into the drink! James has partnered with The Valley Hope Foundation to raise funds and awareness to further our mission to help those in the Swannanoa Valley affected by Hurricane Helene.

Donate below to send Popsicle Jimmy into the freezing waters of Lake Norman!
