Key Information for Plungers
- Anyone can create a TEAM! You can be the team captain, share with others and ask them to join.
- Challenge others to a competition for most funds raised!
- Please register on fundly.com and share your page to collect pledges online. You can also collect cash and cheques from friends, relatives and/or co-workers – they will be happy to sponsor your jump into the river for a great cause! You can circulate the hardcopy pledge form and/or gather donations online.
- Pledge sheets can be downloaded here or hard copies picked up at the Fire Hall (1881 Rogers Rd), The Beer Store, Barnabe's Indpendent, the Perth Library, or the Legion.
- Donations can be made online using credit card (our Stripe account is managed by the Town of Perth) and can be directed to your individual and team total amounts.
- There is a minimum pledge total of $35 for each plunger. Keep all cheques and money collected and pledge sheets safe in a large envelope and hand them in when you register for the plunge on January 1st.
- Don’t forget that Plungers eat free at our delicious breakfast in the Legion. All others are welcome to eat for a modest fee ($10 adults, $5 children).
- Wear some sort of footwear (not filp slops!) and avoid clothing that will soak up water for when you plunge (less is more). Bring a towel and warm, dry clothes to change into (change rooms in the Legion).
- We welcome teams of plungers and can have up to 4 people plunging at one time (safety first!).
- HAVE FUN! Wear a costume, bring a friend.
- Tuques will be given to individuals raising over $100. Tuques can also be purchased for $40 - they make great gifts!
- We will enter your name in a special draw if you raise over $500. An additional draw entry will be made for each additional $500 raised.
- Being a spectator is also a great way to support the community.
- Make sure to follow our Facebook page for updates of the Bike Park's opening!
