Scotts Bluff County Sheriff Mark Overman and Chris Baer joins Kevin Mooney on KNEB's News Extra program Tuesday morning to talk about the Panhandle Polar Plunge, which is coming up on Saturday, February 25th at the Riverside Park in Scottsbluff. Plungers will jump into the North Platte River. Each plunger to benefit Special Olympics Nebraska.
A plunger can be anyone with enough nerve and heart, willing to dip more than their toes in some freezing water for a good cause. Minimum donations start at $50. Plungers can participate on an individual basis or be part of a team. And if you’re taking the plunge, just know that this event is all about having fun while doing good. In other words, dress up in a costume or come up with a theme for your team, the wackier the better.
Check-in begins at 9:30 a.m. Teams and individual plunges will start at 11:00 a.m. Immediately following the plunge there will be a post-plunge party held at YMCA Camp. Food will be provided for the plungers and the incentives at the $75 & $3,000 level will be given out.
