Polar Plunge Page!

Paige Kroupa

Hi! I'm Paige. I am a Special Olympics athlete who has participated in the Polar Plunge for 7 years. This year, I'll be FREEZIN FOR A REASON again!!!

Before Special Olympics, I never thought that I could play sports of any kind. Now I play volleyball, bowling and golf.

Because of Special Olympics, I have accomplished things that I would never dream I could do. Those accomplishments gave me a level of confidence that I never had before

As a member of Athlete Leadership, I have become a coach. In fact, I upped my game by becoming a Tier 2, and then a Tier 3 coach.  A Tier 3 coach is the highest certification in Special Olympics. A Tier 3 coach is eligible to coach athletes at National and World Games. Through Athlete Leadership, I am also became a Global Messenger. The Global Messenger Training taught me how to write a speech and deliver It. I have spoken to groups like Knights of Columbus, Rotary and Kiwanis, The groups can be from 15 to 200 people. Organizations like these have helped support Special Olympics, both with donations and as volunteers. I am asking you to help support Special Olympics too.

This is a wonderful organization. It does amazing things for Intellectually Disabled children and adults. This is my 8th year doing the Polar Plunge. Please help me make my goal of $5,000.00. Any donation, large or small is appreciated! It's easy to donate. Click on this link to help me make a BIGGER SPLASH THAN LAST YEAR!!!  BTW, last year I raised $8,136.00 dollars! That was a very big deal and I was named the top athlete fundraiser in Florida for the second year.

I'm very proud of the dollars we've raised, but I am also proud of the number of supporters who have helped us year after year. And the number of supporters has grown each year. I hope we have another good year again. But without your support I can not achieve that. Thank you in advance For your help.

Mitch Albenzio

I am an athlete in Special Olympics. I compete in Soccer Golf and Bowling.  Bowling is fun because I am coached by my friend Paige Kroupa and her mom.

I look forward to Special Olympics every year because it is very important to me. I have made a lot of friends. This year was very special! My soccer team was invited to compete at the USA Games.  We came back with a silver medal!!  How special is that.   There is always something going on.


This is my 4th year helping my friend Paige. Please help us make a BIGGER Splash for Special Olympics this year.
