ABOUT THE EVENT
The cold is temporary. The impact is not. Grab your friends and get your costumes - anyone with a little courage, a warm heart, and a desire to support a worthy cause is welcome to join us in Freezin' for a REASON!
The Polar Plunge is a unique opportunity for individuals, organizations, and businesses to support Special Olympics athletes by collecting pledges and plunging into Puget Sound.
Too chicken to plunge? Cheer on from the sidelines in the “Chicken Coop.” You can still raise funds, win prizes, and make a difference in the lives of countless local athletes without getting wet.
