The Polar Plunge is a fun, spirited fundraising opportunity to benefit children and adults with intellectual disabilities by helping provide year-round sports training, competition, leadership opportunities and health services. Special Olympics athletes bravely face challenges on and off the field, inspiring participants and supporters alike. 

Individuals can register for $75, or groups of five can register as a team for $375. Participants must raise a minimum of $75 to receive the official Polar Plunge T-shirt. We are excited to offer one-of-a-kind incentives for fundraisers that go above and beyond! View the options here! All funds raised directly benefit Special Olympics Buncombe County. 

Community members who prefer not to plunge can still support the event by donating to an individual or team fundraiser.
