Activities begin at 10 am and “The Plunge” will commence at noon.
The Polar Plunge is an event where all participants race into the frigid waters of Big Bear Lake. Plungers decide how deep they’ll go and how long they stay in the water. Some Plungers only get their ankles wet while others stay in until the lifeguards make them leave the water! The goal of the 3rd Big Bear Polar Plunge is to raise a minimum of $50,000. Your support of this event will help Special Olympics Southern California reach out and provide year-round training and sports programs for children and adults with intellectual disabilities in the Inland Empire Region.
