On Saturday, March 7, 2020, members of the Barrie Police Service will be taking the icy plunge at the 2020 Polar Plunge. Everyone is invited to join in and take the plunge, or come down to Centennial Beach to watch those who are brave enough to jump into the frigid waters!
This event will raise money for Special Olympics Ontario and 100% of the funds will directly benefit the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics Ontario.
Participants (Plungers) can either pay the registration fee or fundraise the minimum requirement to be able to take part in the plunge. Plungers can also earn prizes based on how much money they raise in donations.
This event is proudly supported by 107.5 KoolFM and Rock 95.
