About Winter Games Polar Plunge

REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN for the 2022 Winter Games Polar Plunge!!

Join us at Canoe Creek on Saturday, February 5, 2022!

Registration starts at 9:00AM, Plunges start at 12:00PM

The Winter Games Polar Plunge raises funds and awareness for Special Olympics Pennsylvania. Plungers commit to “Freezin’ for a Reason” by jumping into the frigid waters of Canoe Creek, across the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Spectators can cheer on individuals or teams from the viewing areas, and join us for food, entertainment, vendors, kids’ activities and more!

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

  1. JOIN US: Sign up now to take the plunge and raise money for Special Olympics! 
  2. CREATE A TEAM: Recruit your family, friends, neighbors, colleagues, and that person you met at the grocery store last week!
  3. DON'T WANT TO JUMP, Sign up as TOO CHICKEN TO PLUNGE, come join us and watch others jump. You can still raise critical funds & raise awareness for Special Olympics PA while staying warm and dry!
  4. CAN'T ATTEND, do the POLAR POP from the comfort of your own home!

SPREAD THE WORD: TELL EVERYONE WE ARE BACK!
