By Rick Pezzullo—

Several dozen brave souls took a frigid dip in the Hudson River Saturday in Sleepy Hollow for a good cause.

The 2021 Headless Horseman Plunge at Kingsland Point Park raised more than $30,000 to benefit Briarcliff-based Gullotta House, which was founded in 2015 to help Westchester residents facing a hardship.

The next fundraiser for Gullotta House is Saturday, February 20 at Cortlandt Lanes bowling alley. For more information, visit Gullotta House’s Facebook or website www.gullottahouse.org.
