Hello there! My name is Shiver Bear and I'm the official mascot of the Special Olympics Missouri Polar Plunge.
I'd like to be the first one to welcome you to the brand new SOMO website! We've been working hard on this project for more than a year and we're so happy to finally share it with you.
To celebrate, we want to play a game of Where's Shiver? with you. There are 50 numbered pictures of my handsome face hidden all over this website. Depending on how many you find, you can win some really cool prizes! Want more details? Click here!
Welcome to your new website! Click the X or press Esc to close this pop-up.
Your friend,
