Helpful Hints for Jumpers

MUST READ TIPS!!!
Arrive Early

BOTH THE JUMP & PARKING WILL BE LOCATED AT THE MAIN SWIM BEACH THIS YEAR.
ARRIVE BY 12:30pm for registration, assignment of a jumper number and to turn in all donations. The jump itself will begin exactly at 2:00pm *You cannot jump without a number.
**There will be NO registrations after 1:40pm**
Jumpers are encouraged to raise $100 in donations to get a FREE T-SHIRT.

Tailgating Questions
  Feel free to bring fun and games to the event. Alcohol is prohibited in the park. *Please obey and respect Park Officers and Fire Dept. Personnel. They are here to help!
Set Up Camp
  Once you get to the park, find a place for your blanket and stuff. This will save you mass confusion at the last minute and give you a fun photo opportunity.
Protective Footwear
  Wear something on your feet, i.e., old tennis shoes or "aqua socks," etc. to prevent cuts on your feet from the ice and to prevent your feet from sticking to the snow, ice, and dirt on shore.
Warm Clothes/Boots after Jump
  Have warm/dry change of clothes and shoes/boots to put on once you make the plunge. A Fleece works great as a base layer, hat for head, jacket to break the wind.
Blankets & Towels
  Bring a towel and old blanket to put down somewhere by the shoreline to use as a seat before/after the jump. We don’t want your swimsuit frozen to the ground with you in it!
Do you wear glasses?
  If you lose them in the lake it’s a little cold to go looking…
Spectator?
  This is for an amazing cause so once you have your spot, GO BUY THINGS! There will be T-shirts, food, coffee, and hot chocolate for a small donation. We will also accept and encourage donations. If you are coming to see someone jump please do not arrive at the last minute as this is a very popular event. We have historically concluded the event by 4:00 PM.
