About 2025 Fresno Polar Plunge

Join Us for the Polar Plunge 
Saturday, March 15 at Millerton Lake

The Polar Plunge is not a swim: It's a party and you're invited to be a part of the coolest event of the year!  Plungers can jump into the water all the way or just dip in and out.  If the thought of chilly water is "unBEARable" to you, get the thrill without the chill.  Register as a chicken and still enjoy the festivities.  However you choose to participate, it's time to come out of hibernation and get the party started!  

Every Plunger must raise a minimum of $125 and will receive a Polar Plunge T-shirt and lunch. Cool School participants must raise a minimum of $50 to Plunge but need to raise a minimum of $125 to earn the T-shirt and lunch.  Participants are invited to raise additional funds and earn cool incentive rewards.  Costumes are encouraged (they're not required, but they sure are fun)!

Why Participate?

Your participation will directly support our inclusive sports, health, schools and leadership programs for children and adults with intellectual disabilities.

Through Special Olympics, our athletes build friendships, overcome obstacles and are empowered to realize their full potential. Success on the field leads to more opportunities in daily life as the community learns about the unique abilities and contributions of our athletes. All Special Olympics programs are provided at no cost to the athletes and their families thanks to your support.

What can you Expect?

The Polar Plunge is an iconic tradition in Special Olympics in which brave supporters take a chilly winter dip to show their dedication for our athletes. Our Plunge is a family event and costumes are encouraged! You'll have a blast and feel good knowing that the funds you raise will help us change lives.
