The 7th Annual Newport Penguin Plunge was an enourmous success.  With 135 participants participated on February 13th to raise $23,000+ for the 850 athletes of Special Olympics Vermont.  Donations are still pouring in from our participants.


We hope you enjoyed your Penguin Plunge on Sat., February 13th.  With temperatures hovering near 20 degrees for much of the morning, it was a chilly dip into Lake Memphremagog!  At 11:00 a.m., when our first group took their running leap into the water, the water was 34 degrees and with a light 15mph wind from the NW, the temperature felt closer to 14!newport_penguin_plunge_2010_244_400

We thank you for your generosity and support of our athletes.  All of your donations directly benefit the athletes of Special Olympics Vermont.  Athletes are not charged to participate in organization sponsored athletic events and competitions.  Donations help fund travel to local, state, national and international competitions throughout the year.  Additionally, funds help local programs purchase uniforms, pay training facility fees and order training equipment, just to name a few.
