INDIANAPOLIS (WTHR) - The chill in the air at Eagle Creek Park didn't stop the effort to raise money and awareness for Special Olympics Indiana.
The Polar Plunge brought together people for a leap into Eagle Creek Reservoir. Some were dressed in costume.
Most of them emerged quickly from the freezing water.
For this two-day event, more than 600 high school and middle school students from across central Indiana took part.
They'll do more of the same beginning at 8:00 Saturday morning.
