Polar Plunge

Special Olympics Ireland is calling on hardy souls from Co. Louth to accept the challenge and take the Polar Plunge for local athletes this December.

The plunge returns to Clogherhead on Saturday 1st December 2018 and sees families, clubs, local businesses and individuals brave the icy waters to raise funds for local athletes with an intellectual disability.

Those who think they are brave enough to take the Polar Plunge can register at www. specialolympics.ie/polarplunge. Registration costs just €20 with plungers asked to fundraise an additional amount to support athletes like Martin. The staging of this year’s event would not be possible without the Law Enforcement Torch Run, An Gardaí Siochána, Louth County Council, The RNLI, Coastguard, Irish Underwater Search & Rescue Unit, Civil Defence.
