This one-of-a-kind event promises a fun atmosphere complete with music, funny costumes and lasting memories for everyone!

Incentives
All Polar Bear plungers must raise a minimum of $75 in order to participate. Incentives are in place for those who raise above and beyond the minimum. Each plunger will also get a free lunch.
We are thrilled to highlight SOMO athlete, Jared Niemeyer of Jared's Jams, in our incentives this year!
Note: Plunge incentives are NOT cumulative - the descriptions on the flier below show exactly what you will receive at each level.
