The 2027 Mega Dip Premiere

Friday, March 5th to Saturday, March 6th

Mega Dippers
check in on Friday between 9:00 AM and 10:30 AM. Their first dip takes place immediately following the final Cool Schools wave, kicking off an epic 24-hour challenge. Mega Dippers will complete 24 dips over 24 hours, with their final dip aligning with the opening waves of Saturday's Law Enforcement Dip and Winni Dip.

Unlike any other dipping experience, Mega Dippers enjoy a premium event experience throughout the challenge, with planned activities, meals, refreshments, and opportunities to connect with fellow participants between dips. While this challenge is not for the faint of heart, it offers a truly unforgettable experience for those ready to test their endurance and commitment to supporting Special Olympics New Hampshire.

Twenty-four dips. Twenty-four hours. One incredible challenge. The Mega Dip is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that pushes participants beyond their comfort zones while making a lasting impact for Special Olympics New Hampshire.

Mega Dippers are welcome to compete in Saturday's official Costume Contest alongside Winni Dip and Law Enforcement Dip participants. Winners will be announced during the awards ceremony following the Dip.

That said, costumes are practically a Mega Dip tradition all their own. Throughout the 24-hour challenge, participants often add a little extra fun and creativity to their dips. Don't be surprised to see an inflatable dinosaur, superhero, or other unexpected character taking a plunge in the middle of the night. While costumes aren't required, they're a great way to keep spirits high, create memorable moments, and make the experience even more unforgettable.

The Mega Dip may be a serious challenge, but it's also 24 hours of camaraderie, fun, and plenty of stories you'll be talking about long after the final dip.
