SANDY, Utah — People from all over jumped into freezing cold water on Thursday, to help raise money for Special Olympics Utah.
The polar plunge at the America First Field in Sandy was one of four events to help make inclusive sports more accessible for athletes.
They called in ‘Freezin for a Reason.’"People are willing to jump into cold water to support the mission of Special Olympics, we're raising funds and awareness," said Scott Weaver, President and CEO of Special Olympics Utah.
"Special Olympics means so much to us,” said Patrick.
They are at about $63,000 and have two more Polar Plunge events to help meet that goal.
