Chance to Win Kindle Fire when you register for
Polar Plunge® Winter Festival benefiting Special Olympics Virginia
It’s getting hot in here….so come chill out with us at the 22nd Annual Polar Plunge® Winter Festival benefiting Special Olympics Virginia! More than 3,300 thrill-seekers are expected to brave the chilly Atlantic Ocean wearing nothing but swimsuits and zany costumes at the Polar Plunge, Feb. 7-8 between 6th and 9th streets on the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. Participants need to raise at least $100 to plunge, which helps provide year-round training and athletic competition to more than 13,000 Special Olympics Virginia athletes of all ages.
And this year, we’re really heating things up by giving away a Kindle Fire Jan. 2! Registered plungers, runners and volleyball players who raise $100 online by Dec. 31 are eligible to win this early-bird contest. Follow us on Facebook at Plunge Virginia or on Twitter at @PolarPlungeVA for more details and more cool giveaways, including free Plunge registrations and free Plunge 5K registrations, too!
Not ready to brave the cool waters, but still want to come chill with us? Join us for our inaugural beach volleyball tournament Saturday morning; 2-man (men’s and women’s) and 4-man (co-ed) teams are welcome at this tournament on the sand. Or, flex your athletic prowess Saturday at the Plunge 5K, presented by Tropical Smoothie and the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics Virginia. We promise it will be the coolest run on the boardwalk you do all year.
The Polar Plunge® Winter Festival begins at 10 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 8, with the actual Plunge taking place at 2:30 p.m. Additional Plunge highlights:
- Pee-Wee Plunge – Kids 10 and under can, for a minimum of $50 raised, jump into a cool kiddie pool, as well as win prizes!
- Friday Night Beach Party – Join us for the Friday Night Pre-Plunge Party, Feb. 7 from 6-10 p.m., featuring local favorite Slapnation.
