Plungers will enter the water in groups of approximately 30 people. During the registration process, you will be able to select your preferred wave start time: 10:30am, 11:00am, 11:30am.
TEAM INFORMATION:
If you are going to be the captain of the team, you simply have to name your team when prompted during the registration process as you set up your personal fundraising page. All members will have to register and create pesonal fundraising pages. They will have the option of selecting your team name so that their fundraising efforts are linked to the team page. All team members will be required to also raise $150.
