The annual Polar Bear Plunge at Wildwood to benefit Special Olympics New Jersey (SONJ) drew huge crowds today at Wildwood, NJ due in part to the record high temperatures. In these plunge events participants are required to raise a certain minimum donation amount to gain the privilege of jumping in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of NJ in January. Many of these folks are die hard supporters of this cause, Special Olympics New Jersey, but also love the thrill of taking a quick dip in the chilly ocean, or as they like to say Freezin for a Reason. You can join in on the amazing fun on Feb. 22, 2020 in Seaside Heights, NJ. For more info of to register / donate, click here.



This years event drew over a thousand participants, or plungers as they are called, that raised over $330,000 to benefit Special Olympics New Jersey. In case you feel you missed out or if our Broadway readers wish to give this highly exhilarating event, you are in luck as there will be one more in Seaside Heights, NJ on Feb. 22, 2020.
