The Polar Plunge is an annual event that challenges participants to show support for Special Olympics Nebraska by plunging into a lake...in the dead of winter.
Those brrr-ave enough to run into the icy waters raise money by collecting pledges from family, friends and coworkers. Plungers are encouraged to form teams, dress in costume and share their experience by using hashtag #BeBoldGetCold. Prizes are awarded for creativity and fundraising. All proceeds from the Polar Plunges go to support the amazing athletes of Special Olympics Nebraska.
