Polar Plunge for Special Olympics Michigan

Polar Plunges are one of many annual Law Enforcement Torch Run events. The Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics involves local law enforcement personnel who help reaise funds and increase awareness of Special Olympics in their communities. The first Polar Plunge was held in Saginaw in 2000 raising nearly $10,000. This year we have 24 plunges scheduled across the state of Michigan. Not only have we added plunges, but every plunge continues to grow. In 2010 we held 19 plunges raising over $475,000. During the 2011 polar plunge season we are hoping to raise over $700,000! 2011 Plunge Locations and Dates January 22 Lake City - Missaukee Lake Town Pump Tavern February 12 Belleville - Belleville Lake Belleville Moose Lodge Cheboygan - Burt Lake Hoppies Bar and Grill Fenton - Lake Fenton Fenton Moose Lodge Stanton - Clifford Lake Clifford Lake Inn February 19 Ann Arbor - U of M Golf Course Pond U of M Golf Course Detroit - Detroit River Renaissance Center/Milliken State Park Gaylord- Ostego Lake Ostego Lake State Park Grand Rapids - Reeds Lake East Grand Rapids Middle School Holland - Lake Macatawa Boatworks Waterfront Restaurant Jackson- Clark Lake Clark Lake Beach and Boat Club Mt.
