Caesar Creek Polar Plunge 2016
This year’s Plunge starts at 1:30 p.m. at the Caesar’s Creek swimming beach.
As part of the Polar Plunge experience, participants obtain monetary pledges to earn the privilege of jumping into the frigid waters of Caesar’s Creek. Another less chilly opportunity to raise money is Too Chicken to Plunge. To participate as a Chicken, one raises a minimum of $30 and is awarded with a Too Chicken to Plunge t-shirt as well the opportunity to NOT Plunge. Teams of chickens may be formed in support of favorite Plungers. The Caesar’s Creek Polar Plunge is a family-friendly event and members of the public are invited to come and watch. Spectators may attend the Post-Plunge Party for $10.
