67 CHESAPEAKE ATHLETES Team members took the PLUNGE on Feb 4, 2023 ![]() Thank you to all of our athletes, parents, coaches and partners who came out to plunge through the 35 degree cold
air and into the ocean. The Chesapeake Athletes Team raised over $34,000 and Team
Johnathan raised over $13,000. We want to thank all of our generous donors and the sponsors of our colorful
t-shirt this year: Armada Hoffler, Bubbas 33, Chesapeake Machine Works, Courthouse Cafe and MSP! We
had a fabulous time being together and "Freezing for a Reason". The Polar Plunge is Special Olympics Virginia's largest fundraiser, attracting more than 10,000 people to the oceanfront in February. The fundraising done at
this event pays for most of the expenses of our program - which is free to all athletes. Our Chesapeake program costs $30,000 a year for uniforms, entry fees for local and statewide competitions,
facility fees, travel expenses including van rental, gasoline, meals, and housing. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() On February 5, 2022 our Chesapeake Athletes Team and Team Jonathan took the Polar Plunge! It was a very cold and windy day but the sun was shining.
