It's Almost Time for the Polar Plunge!

We had no trouble convincing more than 20 of our coworkers to go jump in a lake.

Socket’s a proud sponsor of the Polar Plunge, an annual fundraising event for Special Olympics Missouri. Of course, it’s called Polar for a reason – we were afraid that it’d be hard to gather a team for the middle of February.

But Socketeers came through – with nearly a fifth of the company volunteering to dive in, our next challenge is to come to an agreement on a dress-up theme. This could take awhile.

The Polar Plunge features cool music, costumed teams, a parade, festivities and prizes. So even if you don't want to take a dip in the lake, it's still a great time for the whole family, and supports a wonderful organization. Columbia's Polar Plunge is Saturday, February 16th, at Stephens Lake. Come by to cheer on the Plungers, or sign up a team of your own at Somo.org/PolarPlunge.
