About 2025 Shasta County Polar Plunge
Make a Splash for Special Olympics!Feb 15, 2025 @ Foothill High School
Ready to brave the waters for Special Olympics Shasta County? If you can grin and "bear" it, join us at Foothill High School in Palo Cedro for the Shasta County Polar Plunge and hop, skip or jump into chilly waters for our athletes. If the thought of chilly water is "unBEARable" to you, get the thrill without the chill. Register as a chicken, raise funds and still enjoy the festivities.
Every Plunger/Chicken must raise a minimum of $125 and will receive a Polar Plunge T-shirt. Participants are invited to raise additional funds and earn incentive rewards. Costumes are encouraged (they're not required, but they sure are fun)!
Hey check this out! If at least $5,000 is raised, Special Olympics Shasta County Area Director, Stephen Bell, will jump in the water complete in a chicken costume! But that's not all! Get this, Stephen says for every $5,000 raised he will jump in the water in a different chicken costume! Who wouldn't want to see that happen?! Join Stephen and let's make a splash for Special Olympics!
HOW IT WORKS
Plungers can form or join teams, or sign up as an individual. Every Plunger must raise the "bear" minimum of $125 and will receive a Polar Plunge T-shirt and enjoy post-Plunge festivities. Everyone is encouraged to raise additional funds and earn cool incentive rewards. In addition to your Polar Plunge t-shirt for raising $125, hit the $300, $500, $1,000 or $2,500 level and you can earn more cool stuff (they are accumulative).
Register today and make a difference in the lives of children and adults with intellectual disabilities. Let's make a splash for the Special Olympics athletes who enjoy the Shasta County program for free!

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.
