The 16th annual MSP Polar Bear Plunge is coming up on Saturday, Jan. 28. Wanna-be plungers can still register for the event at plungemd.com.
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.)
Registrants must raise $50 in pledges in order to participate in the plunge, and they will receive a commemorative sweatshirt to help them warm up after their dip in the frigid water.
