Hastings High School Raises Money for Special Olympics with Polar Plunge

Dozens of Hastings High School students, parents, and teachers braved the cold weather and frigid waters Friday morning to participate in a Polar Plunge, raising money for Hastings High School Programs and Special Olympics Minnesota. 

Hastings High School Principal Scott Doran said a significant amount of funds were raised from the event that go right back into benefitting Hastings students, and they look forward to continuing this new tradition.

Multiple Hastings High School students talked about why they wanted to plunge and be a part of the special event.
