February 'Polar Plunge' to benefit Special Olympics

LAKE COUNTY – Jump in the lake in February?


That's exactly what some brave individuals are going to do to benefit Lake County Special Olympics.


On Feb. 27, 2010, Lake County will hold its first Polar Plunge into Clear Lake to benefit Lake County Special Olympic athletes.


They will join Fort Bragg, San Francisco and Fresno on this date as they all plunge into the water or gather in the chicken coop and stay dry.


Join the fun as an individual, team or business – everyone is invited.


Raise a minimum of $100 and receive an official Polar Plunge hooded sweatshirt and free admission to the post plunge party at the Kelseyville Lion's Club.


For more information, to register as a plunger or to make a donation go to www.sonc.org/polarplunge and click on the Kelseyville location. If you are too chicken to take the plunge you can always enter the chicken coop and stay dry while still collecting donations.


Lake County Special Olympics must raise money locally to pay for uniforms, equipment and transportation. The athletes participate free of charge and the coaches and other volunteers donate their time.


The athletes gain self confidence and physical fitness while enjoying the social aspect of training as well.


All money raised will benefit Lake County athletes as they train in basketball, track and field, bowling weight lifting and golf.


For more information contact Steve or Peggy Buchholz at 707-279-4280.
