Tell me more about this good cause.
All the money raised at the 2012 Polar Plunge supports local Special Olympics athletes. Sure, we’re all about year-round sports training and competition, that’s our mission. But the words of parent Julie Bernhardt show our program offers even more: “As a mother, I want my kids to know it's okay to be who they are. I want them to know that everyone is different, everyone has challenges but that's a good thing. Special Olympics has helped me to instill that in them." That’s what you are doing - helping us use sports to foster inclusion and acceptance. Spend some time with our athletes to see it for yourself.
