Thank you to all our plungers, strutters and chickens you are awesome! Polar Plunge® will be back in the fall, watch this page for updated locations and times for Polar Plunge® 2013. It's never to early to think Polar Plunge®!
Thanks also to our fantastic sponsors and volunteers, we appreciate you. Scroll down to see all the sponsors from 2012.
Proceeds from the event go to support our programs located throughout Kansas.
There are several ways to get involved!
PLUNGER: Taking the Polar Plunge® is a great way to show you are a fan of SOKS! For a minimum donation of $75, you can jump into frigid water and then thaw out wearing your official Polar Plunge® sweatshirt. Gather friends, family, classmates, teachers and co-workers and form a team!
STRUTTER: These events are up and running - literally! For a nominal donation you can compete in one of our Run/Walks and receive a long sleeve t-shirt. Struts vary in distance and are not scheduled at all locations; check your local Plunge webpage for more details!
