CLINTON COUNTY — Polar Plungers will brave the frigid water of Carlyle Lake, on Saturday, February 29, 2020.

The funds raised from the Law Enforcement Torch Run Polar Plunge® will benefit the athletes of Special Olympics Illinois.

The Carlyle Lake Polar Plunge & Donut Dash will take place at Carlyle Lake Main Beach, with registration at 10 a.m.

All Polar Plungers are required to collect a minimum of $100 in donations. People are encouraged to come in costume and to form teams.

To form a team, each member (minimum of five people to qualify) must raise a minimum of $100 in donations. Meeting these requirements will qualify plungers for team prizes.

Plungers will receive incentive prizes based on the amount of money they raise. By raising the minimum of $100, you will receive an official Plunge hooded sweatshirt.

Over the past 21 years, more than 78,000 plungers have raised more than $22 million.
