Reindeer Plunge

After all 5K participants have crossed the finish line, the adventurous souls will gather at the dock for a fun jump into the lake. If we have a great turnout, we'll have several waves of jumpers. And don't worry- if the lake is frozen, we'll make sure the ice is cut away around the dock so everyone can take a leap.

2:00pm CST

$5.00 Race Fee + $1.30 SignUp Fee
