You can take the Virtual Plunge whenever and however you like! Creativity is key. Whether you’re dipping into an ice cold bath or adding a bucket of ice water to your favorite TikTok dance, the opportunities are endless! Make sure to take a photo or video and share your Virtual Plunge on social media (tag #VirtualPlungeMN so we can find it!) to show how you’re supporting Special Olympics Minnesota. We can’t wait to see what you come up with!
