For many years, the Boys & Girls Club of Detroit Lakes has organized the Polar Fest Plunge as part of Polar Fest, creating a fun winter tradition that has brought our community together while supporting the important work of the Club.

The Boys & Girls Club has made the decision to step away from organizing the Polar Fest Plunge moving forward. We are grateful for the many years of time, energy and enthusiasm the Club, volunteers, sponsors, Plungers and community partners have put into making this such a memorable part of Polar Fest.

What does that mean for 2027?
While plans for a 2027 Polar Plunge are not yet confirmed, there is interest in seeing this popular Polar Fest tradition continue. Stay tuned! We’ll share more information as plans for 2027 develop.
