18th ANNUAL: CPBC POLAR PLUNGE
What a day for a Plunge into Lake Michigan!  It was the coldest plunge in CPBC history, by far, but that didn’t stop 375 brave polar bears from taking the plunge. With the weather conditions, we amazing media coverage as the Plunge was the only event taking place in Chicago that day.

All we can say is thank you to everyone who took part in the Plunge, donated to 3 amazing families, and celebrated with us at Joe’s on Weed Street at the after party. It was another great year as we raised over $35,000.  

We’d also like to thank Tito’s Handmade Vodka, FT Cares Foundation, McDonald’s Owner Operators of Chicago and Northwest Indiana, and Blake’s Seed Based for sponsoring the plunge and helping us make this one of our best plunges to date.
