“Our community is large and wildly diverse, which is at the same time our strength and our weakness. #Activate10 is a movement seeking to increase communication between individuals and organizations across Fremont County and to promote positive action in our communities.”
(Wyoming) – Special Olympics Wyoming is looking for individuals, athletes, businesses, schools, law enforcement, fire, military, and other clubs and organizations that are willing to #MAKEASPLASH by taking a cold-water plunge at a 2025 Jackalope Jump!
Jackalope Jump fundraising events are being scheduled across the state to benefit Special Olympics Wyoming athletes. It’s a “chill” way for everyone to get involved and raise funds to support programming and events for over 1,600 athletes statewide.
The concept is simple: participants raise money to benefit Special Olympics Wyoming athletes, then face freezing cold water! The Jackalope Jumps, however, are so much more than that! They are the kind of fun and inspiring events that you really must experience to understand. Each jump is its own personalized event as they are planned and organized locally by SOWY volunteers. All Jumpers that raise a minimum of $100 per person will receive a Jackalope Jump T-Shirt. Participants that raise $500 per person get a handwarmer/powerbank combination. Those individuals raising $1000 earn an additional set of wireless earbuds and the $1500 level will get an additional $100 Visa Gift Card. All fundraising levels are per person. Team fundraising cannot be combined to be eligible for an incentive.
Schools and 1st Responders can easily get involved in fundraising and participating in a local jump and earn a Jackalope Jump camo bag at $50 minimum per person. Cool School Challengers and 1st Responders are also eligible for all incentive levels by meeting the minimum fundraising amounts per person.
Grab some friends, plan a fun costume, get pumped and register today at SOWY.org!
