Aerotek Employees Take the Plunge for New Jersey Special Olympics

2011 was a benchmark year for the Seaside Heights Polar Bear Plunge, setting a world record with over 5,000 registered plungers! Aerotek New Jersey employees were amongst the crowd and the thrill of the fun-filled event!

Aerotek New Jersey continued participation in the Polar Bear Plunge this year participating alongside plungers from across the country to raise funds to help provide free year-round training and competition in 24 Olympic-type sports to over 21,000 children and adults with intellectual disabilities. For the fourth year now, Aerotek New Jersey employees have braved the frigid waters and plunged for a cause!

In its 18th year, the Seaside Heights Plunge challenged thousands of Plungers and spectators to join in on the fun. This event was presented by the Policemen’s Benevolent Association, NJ101.5 and the Aztec Ocean Resort and sponsored by the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics New Jersey, Jenkinson’s Breakwater Beach Waterpark, Casino Pier and Seaside Heights Tourism.

Aerotek New Jersey raised over $3,500 towards the Special Olympic cause and had 15 plungers participate.
