Alpha Epsilon Beta’s Cold Blooded Chillers will be plunging into the icy waters of Kentucky Lake on Saturday, February 4. The event will be held from 9:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m.
The Polar Plunge is one of the biggest Special Olympics fundraisers of the year. The Plunge is a truly unique event and includes a fun, festive atmosphere with food and great prizes. The Plunge works just like a Walk-a-Thon, but with one big twist. Participants still solicit donations to support their effort (a bear minimum of $75 to take part or $50 for Junior Plungers). Instead of walking, Polar Bears take a chilly dip into the lake at Kentucky Dam Village State Resort Park.
Last year, the Polar Plunge raised a record $69,000 to support the efforts of Special Olympics Kentucky athletes.
