Join Hearty Roots for the 1st annual “Plunge for a Purpose” charity event on Monday, January 1st. Participants can plunge, party, or cheer. All ticket sales will support Hearty Roots, a Lincoln County-based youth organization dedicated to getting local kids “off the grid and into their hearts” by helping them mindfully engage with nature in every season. The Plunge: Starting on the shores of Pemaquid, participants will PLUNGE into the waves at noon, at near high tide. Arrival begins at 11:30 when coffee and pre-plunge pastries will be provided by local vendors. Plungers are asked to consider their ability to submerge in the cold ocean. The Party: Beginning at 12:30, Hearty Roots will surround you with warmth in the form of friends new and old, laughter, celebration, snacks and hot drink. The Presents: In appreciation for your support, Hearty Roots will gift a unique, adventure-based present to the first 100 participants.
Presents-for-a-purpose items include gift certificates to Reny’s & Sherman’s bookstores, fine vegan leather journals, camp chairs, day outing backpacks, stainless steel mugs, yoga mats, and other inspired items. Tickets: Tickets for the plunge and party are $50. (Kids plunge free, but must be accompanied and supervised by their grown up.) Plungers can reserve their ticket and pay in advance. Better yet, Hearty Roots encourages you to network with friends to have them sponsor you in a ‘plungathon,’ raising a minimum of the ticket price. Bring your collected donations to the event, with the sign-up form from the Events Page at heartyroots.org. Hearty Roots will see you and your bold spirit in the new year!
