The Mighty Merrimack Tigers

Penguin Plunge

Join the jungle where inclusion runs wild!

We’re so excited to be making an icy splash into the Atlantic at the Penguin Plunge for Special Olympics New Hampshire! This year’s theme is “Jungle Safari” and our team is ready to trade the cold for the wild as we take the plunge for inclusion!

Please donate to our Plunge — your support helps Special Olympics athletes across New Hampshire participate in life-changing programs that build fitness, confidence, and belonging.

Every dollar helps create a more inclusive, accepting, and empowered Granite State — one where every athlete can roar with pride, swing into opportunity, and shine bright in their own way.

Thank you for helping our team go wild for inclusion — and for keeping the jungle spirit alive, even in freezing waters!

Thank you to our Sponsors
