Grand Junction, CO - Get ready for the coolest event of the season! Communities across Colorado are gearing up for the annual Law Enforcement Torch Run Polar Plunge for Special Olympics. This year, the Grand Junction Police Department and Mesa County Sheriff’s Office are teaming up with Special Olympics Colorado for the First Annual Grand Junction Polar Plunge.
Together, we’re diving in to raise funds for Special Olympic athletes from across the state. Every dollar raised helps support sports, health, and education programs that empower children and adults with intellectual disabilities, building confidence, self-esteem, and life skills.
