The event, which took place under sunny skies with temperatures in the 50s, had 475 people registered to participate.

The 2009 plunge drew 424 plungers and raised more than $100,000 to support Special Olympics’ year-round sports training programs and competitions for individuals with intellectual disabilities and their peers.

“The Westport Penguin Plunge continues to be the largest plunge in the state for Special Olympics Connecticut and the largest fundraiser for Special Olympics Connecticut, Southwest Region of the year,” said staff members Lisa Vane, Debbie Horne, Jen Williams and Marie Domack.
