| 2/27/2010 | 2010 Polar Plunge Zuma Beach |
| Plunge participants take a quick dip in the Pacific to raise funds for Special Olympics Southern California. Plungers set their own personal goals of how deep to go and how long they stay in (within the limits established by the lifeguards). Some Plungers only get their ankles wet while others stay in until the lifeguards make them leave the water. Going completely underwater is discouraged since it makes it harder for the lifeguards to determine individuals in distress. For more Polar Plunge information, to register offline, or if you have questions, please contact Eloise Crawford at ecrawford@sosc.org or 310.400.3120. To learn more about Special Olympics Southern California - Greater Los Angeles Area, please visit their program page. Click here for more info |
