Show your support for team 10.MSO Mower County and the Polar Plunge by making a pledge or joining our team at https://reg.plungemn.org/team/10msomowercounty.

You’ve never jumped into frigid Minnesota waters in the middle of the winter? Well, we can help change that. Each year, the Polar Plunge challenges thousands of brave jumpers at numerous locations around the state. It’s a great way for everyone — individuals, organizations and businesses — to get involved in supporting Mower County Special Olympics and Special Olympics Minnesota.

All funds raised go towards programming and events for more than 100 athletes in Mower County and  8,000 athletes statewide.

Think you have what it takes? The concept is simple: participants raise a minimum of $75 and take a dip into one of Minnesota’s frozen lakes. But the Plunges are so much more than that. They’re the kind of fun and thrilling events that you really have to experience to understand. Grab some friends, get pumped and register today.
