Individual Plungers -- Step-by-Step Information About How to Get Started!

Step 1: Pick up a brochure from any of our distribution sites or download a registration form here.

Step 2: Set your fundraising goal. The minimum is $100 for the right to plunge. Just remember, the higher your goal, the more opportunities we can provide to our Special Olympians!

Step 3: Start raising those dollars! The easiest way to set up your own Web page is on www.firstgiving.com/sova. It takes 5 minutes to set up your page, even for those computer novices! The site will walk you through set up!

Step 4: Gather your registration materials.

• You will need your registration form (you can download this or complete the form that's in the Plunge brochure).
• Sign your waiver.
• Bring your donations. If you used Firstgiving.com, print off your Web site as a record of your online donations.

Step 5: Drop off your registration form and donations early to avoid long lines. We will also give the first 500 plungers to register a great plunge gift!

During the week of Jan 22-25, register at our NEW Special Olympics Virginia office. We are located at 184 Business Park Drive, Suite 202 (about a half mile from from the intersection of I-264, Newtown Road, and Greenwich Road). We will register plungers from 10am- 4pm.

During the week of January 29 to February 1, we will register plungers at the Ramada Inn at 6th and Atlantic from 2pm- 7pm.

Step 6: If you don’t register early, come to the Ramada Inn (enter from the boardwalk) on the plunge day from 10am to Plunge-time.
