Over 350 People Gearing Up To Plunge Into Icy Water For Special Olympics Fundraiser

If you're going to jump into freezing cold water, it should be for a good reason.

That's the idea behind the "Polar Bear Plunge," a fundraiser for Special Olympics Minnesota. Each "plunger" needs to have raised as least $75.

Last year, more than 300 participants jumped at the St. Cloud plunge, raising over $50,000. This year, more than 350 people have already registered to jump into Pleasant Lake at the 400 Club on Saturday.

Same day registration begins at 11 a.m. at the plunge site, with the event kicking off at 1p.m.
