The sixth annual “Be Cool for Our School” Polar Plunge to benefit Marian Catholic High School takes place on Jan. 26 at Mauch Chunk Lake in Jim Thorpe. The event formerly benefited St. Joseph Regional School in Jim Thorpe, which closed at the end of the 2017-2018 school year.

Registration is $35 and is open from 10 to 11:30 a.m. The first plungers hit the water at noon.

Registration is not limited to plungers. Participants may register as a chicken to show their support, but stay dry.

A commemorative T-shirt is included with a plunger or chicken registration. With the exception of current Marian students, all plungers must be 18 or older.

The event is family-friendly and will feature a DJ.

Food and beverage will be available for purchase. There is no fee for spectators.
