DO
- Wear your plunging suit under the clothes you wear to the event – then you don’t have to change into it just to change right back out of it!
- Bring a loose pair of shoes to wear after the Plunge – something that will slip on easily and doesn’t have tricky laces (think Crocs or water shoes).
DO NOT
- Do NOT dive in – this is a safety regulation and will be enforced by the safety team!
- Beyond that, remember that a Plunge is whatever you want it to be, so there is no pressure to fully submerge yourself.
- Do not run into the water too quickly, there might be things in the water you can not see. You might step on them or kick them and trip.
- Do not be the first to go into the water if it is your first time. Remember, there will be many people behind you and if you get in there and decide you need to get out immediately, it will be difficult to do so quickly.
- Do not worry about “missing” the Plunge – sometimes it can be as many as 300 people going in the water, so even if you wait 5 or 10 minutes until the crowd thins out, you’ll still get the full Plunge experience…but in a less congested way.
THINGS YOU SHOULD BRING
- A bag for wet clothes
- A backpack or tote bag to hold street clothes and your new T-shirt
- Two medium-sized Towels – one to dry with and one to stand on
- A dry friend to hold your valuables while you are in the water
- Water-friendly shoes
- Clean, dry undergarments to wear after your plunge
- Maybe bring a Waterproof Camera that you can carry into the Plunge Zone with you… or feel free to ask a fellow Plunger to capture your big moment and you can email your favorite photos to us if you want to share them on our gallery.
Most of all… just have a great time! We thank you so much for your participation!
