Union duo set to ‘plunge’ for a good cause

It’s not just snow that will make some people in Philadelphia cold this weekend, but also water as it’s the annual Polar Plunge benefiting Special Olympics. This year Philadelphia Union say players Matt Freese and Nathan Harriel are set to get ‘Freezin’ for a reason’.

This year’s plunge is taking place outside Citizens Bank Park from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm. Event goers can park for free in Lot S. The event will have other activities including backyard games, food trucks, a live DJ, a union inflatable mini soccer and more. Right now, online registration is closed for the event, but you can still stop by ‘the bank’ to cheer on the plungers.
