For those of you who have already joined the Cult of Cool, you can now order custom made shirts that feature your very own, hard-earned Lake Monster number! Here’s what they look like:
And for those rare and intrepid souls who did 1/2 mile or more in sub-35F water temps, you can get your Lake Monster Elite (a.k.a. “Ice Monster”) number on the back instead:
Just send me a quick note at srhernan [at] gmail [dot] com, and I’ll get back to you with pricing and sizing options.
And finally, for all the rest of you who haven’t yet made it out to Ladder #1, you can always check out the OWC store where you can buy a whole bunch of really cool OWC stuff!
But until you actually come out and swim with us, you will have to gnash your teeth in silent envy and/or caterwaul with rage whenever you see one of us sporting our ultracool Lake Monster numbers!
Do I get an elite for going into the water in just my swimsuit early last year? Hahaha. I love those t-shirts!
Hey there! All ya gotta do is swim a 1/2 mile below the 35F mark – wetsuit or not (I personally would recommend a wetsuit!)
Does my swim last month qualify me for elite status???
? dose this mean that i will get the #1 tee shirt . Chris gets #2 and you Steve qualify for #3…..? ? ?
You’re definitely an Elite 1. I’m either 2 or 3. Did Chris get in before me in December of last year? I can’t remember…
