More than 2,200 people have signed up for the 2021 Polar Bear Plunge, Special Olympics Delaware’s biggest annual fundraiser, although Covid safety restrictions prevent the typical events – a run into the ocean from Rehoboth Beach. In the nearly 11 months since the pandemic began disrupting Special Olympics Delaware events, athletes and coaches have taken to gathering online 2–3 times per week for workout sessions and anticipate playing spring sports outdoors in person.
