Jumpers gather pledges and donations for their willingness to jump into freezing (but also exhilarating) Jobs Pond at camp. All proceeds provide camp scholarships for children to attend YMCA Camp Ingersoll over the summer! Teams and costumes are highly encouraged! If you can't jump, bringing the excitement and support as a spectator is always encouraged. To participate in Chill for Change, you will need to meet the following criteria:
• Minimum of 14 years of age, all jumpers are sent an electronic waiver. If not signed, a waiver will be provided on February 8th.
• Jumpers must pre-register. Jumpers register on our online fundraising site located at campingersoll.org. Individuals can create their own pages or join a team page that links to individual members.
• Obtain sponsorships for yourself totaling a minimum of $100 per jumper; all pledges should be collected and turned in (or recorded online) on February 8th, 2025. We highly suggest jumpers to encourage supporters to donate online.
• Checks may be made payable to YMCA Camp Ingersoll.
• Jumpers must sign a waiver form prior to jumping (electronic copy recommended).
• All jumpers must be wearing shoes!
