Your Guide to the Main Event

Check-in before you take the spotlight

All plungers must check in by 11:00 a.m. on Plunge Day.

Check-in takes place at the Ashworth by the Sea from 9:00-11:00 a.m. on Plunge Day. Want to skip the longest lines? You'll also have the option to check in at one of our advance check-in locations before the event. We'll share details about those locations as we get closer to Plunge Day.

If you've already checked in at an advance location, you can head straight to the Casino Ballroom when you arrive. If not, please plan to complete check-in before joining the festivities.

At check-in, plungers will:

  • Complete a registration form (if you did not register online).
  • Turn in any cash and/or check donations along with a Cash Donor Record Form.
  • Sign a waiver, or if you are under 18, submit a waiver signed by a parent or guardian.
  • Receive your wristband to Plunge and a guest wristband for access to the Hampton Casino Ballroom.
  • Receive your basic Plunge package and any additional incentives that you've earned.
