SPECIAL OLYMPICS ILLINOIS

2011 SUPER Plunge Lake Michigan,  Illinois

Jeff Henson's SUPER Plunge VI

 

Jeff's SUPER Plunge VI

  After last year's SUPER Plunge and the conditions we faced (see video  and picture below) I ask myself why I am doing it again, I do it for the athletes!

Thank you for visiting my "SUPER Plunge" fundraising page. I will again (for the 6th year in a row) be joining Some Unbelievable Plungers Who Enter Repeatedly once an hour every hour for 24 hours into Lake Michigan on Feb. 25 & 26, 2011. Yes, I am again plunging 24 times in 24 hours!

I hope all of you will help me reach my goal for this event - to raise at least $5,000 for the athletes of Special Olympics Illinois (SO ILL)!

This will be the 6th year of the SUPER Plunge in Illinois and I have plunged every year since we began. I have actually plunged nearly 114 times in the ice cold waters of Illinois and around the world for the athletes during my 14 years with Special Olympics Illinois.

Since its inception, the SUPER Plunge has raised more than $300,000. You have helped me raise more than $15,000 toward that total! THANK YOU ALL.

I hope you all will again join me in making a difference in the lives of the athletes of SO ILL so they can continue ot train and compete year-round free of charge. By donating to Specail Olympics Illinois through my SUPER Plunge effort, you are helping to change these athletes' lives every day. You are allowing them to show what they CAN do, not what they can't!

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 SUPER Plunge for Special Olympics Illinois.

Your donations to me are being matched! Again this year, for everyone who donates to me, my friends at BWM Global will match $.50 of every dollar I raise. So please be generous with you donations! I want to give a big thank you to Brad and his staff at BWM Global for this great match!

Donations by Mail: Jeff Henson, Special Olympics Illinois SUPER Plunge, 605 E Willow, Normal, IL 61761.

Thanks, Jeff
