The Evergreen Lake Plunge, which was postponed from its original New Year's Day date due to poor ice conditions, has been rescheduled for Saturday, Feb. 12, 2017.

At high noon on Feb. 12 at Evergreen Lake, people will jump into the inviting waters of Evergreen Lake for a winter plunge to benefit several local charities, including Evergreen Park & Rec District's Special Needs Programs and Drive Smart. Several local personalities also plan to plunge into the icy waters.

The event is a partnership with Drive Smart, Evergreen Fire/Rescue and the Jeffco Sheriff's Office.

A 10-by-10-foot hole will be cut in the ice and equipped with a platform, ladder and Evergreen Fire Rescue water personnel to ensure everyone's safety.

Registration is $35 in advance and $45 at the door. Sign up online at drive-smart.org!

Too chicken to plunge but want to support someone who isn’t? You can sponsor that friend, boss or enemy and watch those wild, wooly characters jump in! Make a donation to an Evergreen Lake Plunger.

Parking will be at US Bank and adjacent lots, with a shuttle running to Evergreen Lake beginning at 10 am, and registration on the day of the plunge opens at 10:30 AM. There will be no parking at the Lake.
