The Plunge – Freezin for a Reason
8th Annual Plunge Benefit-t-t-ting Kids in the Creek & Environmental Education
Coming “Super Bowl Saturday”, February 1! This year will be at the Champion Credit Union Aquatic Center in Canton, NC!
On-site registration opens at 10 am.
The Plunge is a community event, bringing together citizens, schools, public officials, businesses, churches, and many others to support kids and protecting Haywood County’s waterways.
The cost is $25 ($10 under 18) or FREE by raising sponsorships from your friends, family, co-workers, and businesses; 100% of the proceeds benefit our Kids in the Creek and environmental education programs.
Plungers don’t technically have to “plunge”, a simple dip of the toe is acceptable, though your peers may think otherwise. All Plungers will receive a FREE t-shirt to commemorate their courage and support of clean water.
All ages welcome, though kids will need their parent’s to sign the Waiver Form. Shirt and shoes are mandatory. Costumes are also encouraged and the top three Best Costumes will walk away with fabulous prize packages.

3. On-site the day of the event
Base Camp on the Go will bring their truck fully-loaded with outdoor fun for the kids. There will be several food trucks on site. Bonfires will also be raging to help folks warm up as well as indoor changing and eating facilities. Since it is a winter Plunge, the event will happen rain or shine!
We are also seeking event Sponsors!

Our goal is $35,000 and we can also use everyone’s help to spread the word. Please forward this announcement to everyone you know!
