Marian Catholic High School invites the local community to make a splash at the school’s ninth annual Polar Plunge on Saturday at Mauch Chunk Lake Park in Jim Thorpe.
Join officials and “Be Cool for Our School” as supporters raise much-needed funds for Marian Catholic High School.
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 Marian Catholic 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.
