For those willing to brave the elements with this challenge, additional incentives will be awarded! To register as a Super Plunger, you must pre-register on-line and contact Kerry Gloede by February 15th at 608-789-7596 or via e-mail at gloedek@cityoflacrosse.org! More information will be provided upon registration.

Will the 2008 Plunge be your 10th plunge?
