SPECIAL OLYMPICS DELAWARE

2011 Lewes Polar Bear Plunge for Special Olympics Rehoboth,  Delaware

Bruce Maynard's Fundraising Page

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! I truly appreciate your support of this hallmark event for Special Olympics Delaware! This year will be my 3rd Plunge as I look to continue what's now become an annual event! As you may be aware, last year's Plunge was originally postponed from Feb. 7th to March 14th due to a couple of inches of snow. As you can see in the picture above, we still held our own Plunge on Feb.7th and didn't let a couple of snowflakes ruin a great event. Hopefully, this year's Plunge will even be more fun!

Why am I doing this? Simple, this is the biggest annual event for the Special Olympics Delaware and the funds raised are used to provide ongoing support for the program and athletes. Through my involvement with SODE over the last four years I have had the opportunity to see the results of a truly remarkable organization. Seeing the smiles of all the Olympians at the Summer Games, Plane Pull or the Night of Heros is an unbelievable experience and show the real positive impact of the organization on their lives and their families.

Again, thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too! Hope to see you in Rehoboth on February 6th, 2011!!
