Socket Takes the Polar Plunge

 

 

We’ll answer the obvious question first – yes, it was really, really, really cold.

But we still had a lot of fun at this year’s Polar Plunge, which raised more than $93,000 for Special Olympics Missouri! That’s a lot of money for just a few moments of frigid discomfort!

We also loved seeing everyone’s costumes – our team featured several of the Avengers, a caveman, an astronaut, and John McClane (of Die Hard), just to name a few. And a few of our personal favorite costumes from the other teams included the Tetris blocks, the Zombie Prom Queens, and Mega Man, whose costume appeared to be duct-taped to their body. That's dedication!

A huge thanks to Special Olympics Missouri for letting us help sponsor this fantastic event. We can’t wait until next year’s plunge (but here’s to hoping it’ll be just a few degrees warmer)!
