Winter Swimming Initiation Ceremony - Walrus Day - Club 'Ozerki', St. Petersburg, Russia

Members and guests of "Ozerki" winter swimming club gathered at Upper Suzdalskoye lake in St. Petersburg, Russia to celebrate the Walrus Day, an anniversary of the club. The party started with a show of Cold Water Mermaids. Then Cold Water Doctors miraculously cured Tamara Zuyeva, 83, one of the oldest club members. The former stars of Kirov ballet performed the famous dance of Little Swans, adapted to cold water. Finally, those club members who have proved their loyalty to the club and winter swimming for two years were initiated to the title of Walrus. Some of them, for the two years, not only managed to harden themselves but also collected a number of medals won at winter swimming competitions in Russia and abroad.
