Polar Bear Plunge breaks records | Community Spirit

The 2013 Polar Bear Plunge at Scales Lake in Boonville was a record breaker. This benefits the Special Olympics of Indiana. What a tremendous honor to emcee this event for the last 10-years…and the support continues to grow each year. I remember the first few years…there were only 10-15 plungers.

The 2013 numbers are in…a record 200 plungers raised  $72,950.51  Last year…over $25,000 was raised with around 115 plungers.

Kudos to Keith Shelton who raised over $30,000 by himself. Keith is a first time plunger but has been volunteering with the Special Olympics for over 30-years. He raised the money in just six weeks.
