What's the Plunge?

Experience the coolest event of the year!

Experience the 2009 Polar Bear Plunge and you’ll be exposed to a spectacle like no other! For just $50 in pledges, Plunge participants take a quick dip in the Chesapeake Bay to raise funds for Special Olympics Maryland, the state’s largest year-round organization devoted to sports training and competition for children and adults with intellectual disabilities. Anyone can participate! (Under 18 requires parent or guardian signature.)

Cool Prizes For Plungers

With just $50 in pledges, Plungers automatically get the official Polar Bear Plunge Sweatshirt, a complimentary lunch, a photo gift, and bragging rights over all the people who couldn't bear it. Plus, the more money Plungers raise, the more cool stuff they can get - like essential Plunge gear.

Personal Plunge Page

Plungers can create their own Plunge Web Page so that friends, family and co-workers can visit and donate right online.

The event is open to the public, and all spectators are welcome free of charge. All proceeds benefit Special Olympics Maryland.
