SPECIAL OLYMPICS ILLINOIS

2008 Polar Plunge Yorkville
Training buddies: Team Oswego

Dwight Baird's Fundraising Page

Thank you for visiting my “Plunge” fundraising page. Last year I was able to raise around $2,000.00 so this year I wanted to push it a little more and try and top $3201.00.  I can tell you that the wind and ice last year made it very cold and I think with the winter we have had so far it will be worse but the cause is all worth it.   With your support last year I was the "2007 Golden Plunger" of Lake Loon, meaning with your help I was able to raise the most moneis for Special Olympics from all of the plunger at Lake Loon in 2007.  Of course I would like to keep that going in 2008.

This year please if you can come on out and witness the plunge, it is always fun and their is a warming tent for you to stay warm.  I look forward to seeing you there. 

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to the Law Enforcement Torch Run Polar Plunge for Special Olympics Illinois

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
