On Saturday over 600 crazy people got together to raise money for Special Olympics of Washington State with the annual 'Freezin For a Reason' Polar Plunge in Columbia Park.
January 19, 2013 The Colombia River in January. Colder than penguin poop! Watch KORD's Paul Drake be a champion for the annual Special Olympics fundraiser...

December 11, 2012 Hey Everybody!
My boss Paul Drake will once again be doing the Annual Polar Plunge! He does it every year and I'm so proud of him! He only has like 3% body fat, so I imagine it's SUPER COLD but he does it anyway!
It's all to raise money for Special Olympics of Washington
February 3, 2012 As I sat down this morning I noticed a CD on my desk dropped off by an anonymous person. I put the CD in my computer drive and started giggling... Oh, the memories!
January 22, 2012 It was a cold and windy day Saturday making the 2012 Polar Plunge for Special Olympics Washington challenging to say the least. Still, nearly 700 people turned out to take the plunge into the 36-degree water of the Columbia River -- some in bikinis and others in wild costumes

January 11, 2012 A couple of weeks ago I walked into the KORD studio and Chuck & Greg asked me if I was willing to take the Polar Plunge on January 21st. I said "Well that would be crazy" Then I saw how many people are actually jumping into the Columbia River and it's all for Special Olympics Of Washington. I then had a change of heart and said "YOU'RE ON"!
January 11, 2012 On January 21st hundreds from around the area will take the plunge! Polar Plunge is a fun way to support local Special Olympics athletes. All you have to do is sign up and have your friends, relatives, and co-workers sponsor you! Dress up as a character or just go in your swim suit.
