Make a Splash for Special Olympics!
Trinity County is starting a brand new Special Olympics program! You are invited to join us for the inaugural Polar Plunge to raise funds to support Special Olympics Trinity County. The Polar Plunge is NOT a swim. If you can grin and "bear" it, you'll make a quick splash and then dash to the Post Plunge festivities. If the thought of chilly water is "unBEARable", get the thrill without the chill. Register as a chicken and still enjoy the festivities.
Every Plunger and Chicken must raise a minimum of $125 and will receive a Polar Plunge T-shirt and lunch. Participants are encouraged to raise additional funds and earn more incentive rewards.
HOW IT WORKS:
1️⃣ Rally Your Crew (or Fly Solo!)
Grab your besties, coworkers, or family and dive in together!
2️⃣ Pick a Fearless Leader & Name Your Squad!
Elect a team captain and brainstorm the most epic team name. (Extra points for puns and frosty humor!)
3️⃣ Hit That Register Button
Sign up and officially join the coolest event of the season. Pro tip: Early birds get more time to plan their costumes!
4️⃣ Fundraise Like a Pro
Spread the word and raise those critical funds for the Special Olympics program in Trinity Countgy. You’re not just plunging—you’re making a difference!
5️⃣ Suit Up & Show Up!
Costumes are a strongly encouraged—go big or go home! Then, bring your energy, smiles, and maybe a towel. Time to take the plunge!
Ready to make waves? Let’s do this! 🏊♂️🎉

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.
