2023 Pool Plunge for the Derek Record Endowment

On New Year's Day, January 1, 2023, at 10:15 am, I will be jumping into that water, but you determine the jump.  I will stream the Pool Plunge live on the Endowment's Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/DerekRevordEndowment. Make sure you "Like" the page to receive a notice when I go live.

Oh, I am 100% jumping in a Speedo!!!! But, this year there is a catch....

I will be wearing a Hotdog Costume over it!!!  Yes, for the Pool Plunge, I will transform into the Human Hotdog!!!

My freezing and embarrassment is your entertainment. Please donate at least $43 as Derek would have turned 43 in January but any amount is greatly appreciated.

$100 - jump in the shallow end and out as fast as possible - Definitely doing this!!!

$250 - jump in the shallow end and swim to the other side of the shallow end

$500 - jump off the diving board and exit as quickly as possible

$750 - cannonball off the diving board

$1,000 - flip off the diving board

$2,000 - go down the water slide

$4,000 - flip off the diving board and go down the water slide!!

$5,000 - jump into the spa filled with ice water!!!!

I am not doing all of those items :-)  Only the item at the donation level; example - $1,100 raised, flip off the diving board only.

All money raised will go to the Derek Revord Endowment of the Coastal Community Foundation.  The Endowment grants money each year to the Special Olympics South Carolina serving the Lowcountry.  Learn more at http://derekrevordendowment.com or follow the Endowment on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/DerekRevordEndowment/.
