Clean Up The Lake is excited to announce its 2nd Annual Polar Plunge taking place Saturday, May 16 from 9:30 to 10:30 AM at Lakeside Beach. The plunge happens at 10:00 sharp. Dive into a morning of chilly fun and bold community action, all in support of our diver powered mission to remove submerged litter from Lake Tahoe and surrounding alpine lakes.

The first 50 participants to register will receive a FREE custom beach towel from NOMADIX, made from 100% recycled post-consumer materials and embroidered to commemorate the “2nd Annual Clean Up The Lake Polar Plunge”. We are incredibly grateful to Nomadix for supporting this year’s event and helping us bring together community members in support of a cleaner Lake Tahoe.
Space is limited and capped at 75 participants for safety reasons, but friends and family are encouraged to come cheer on participants from the beach while supporting a great cause.
This year’s Polar Plunge is more than just a cold water challenge. It is a community driven fundraiser helping support underwater litter removal, environmental dive operations, and freshwater conservation efforts throughout the Tahoe Basin.
Thanks to an incredible anonymous donor, every dollar raised will go twice as far with $15,000 in matching funds already committed. In addition, Lakeside Park Association has generously donated both the beach venue and an additional $2,500 toward the fundraiser goal.
Every registration and every donation helps us move closer to our goal, with just $12,500 left to raise.

Whether you take the plunge, donate, or cheer from the shore, you are helping protect the waters of Lake Tahoe for future generations. Let’s make a splash for a cleaner Lake Tahoe together.
