Thank You!
Dear :

Ian Mpls 2010 PlungeThank you for taking the
2010 Minneapolis Polar Bear Plunge!
The event was a huge success and set a Minnesota Plunge record with more than 1,600 Plungers and $300,000 raised to benefit Special Olympics Minnesota! Through your enthusiastic participation, you have made a difference in the lives of 6,500 athletes with intellectual disabilities.

We would love your feedback so that we can continue to make the Minneapolis Plunge bigger and better. Please take a few minutes to answer our Plunge survey. (All answers are private and anonymous.)

The Polar Bear Plunge is just one of many fundraisers associated with the Law Enforcement Torch Run to benefit Special Olympics. The Torch Run is the largest grassroots fundraiser and public awareness vehicle for Special Olympics in the world. A big "thank you" to the many law enforcement volunteers who devote their time to organize these special events, including the Minneapolis Police Department, Minneapolis Park Police Department, Metro Transit Police Department, Hennepin County Sheriff's Deputy Association, Minneapolis Police Federation and the University of Minnesota Police Department. Thank you for making these events possible!

Please know that we will mail out incentives as soon as possible. Allow four-six weeks to receive the items, and if you have not by then, please contact us at polarbearplunge@somn.org. We really appreciate your patience!
