MaryBeth Munden was a bit disappointed she didn’t meet her goal, but she’s still happy her ice-cold lake plunge raised $1,285 for Special Olympics Minnesota. Her goal this year was $1,500.

Her team, however, did in fact collectively raise more than the goal – a total of $1,665.

Recently, Munden and her team took the “Polar Bear Plunge” at a lake in Eden Prairie. The event was one of 16 held throughout Minnesota as part of the annual “Law Enforcement for Special Olympics Minnesota.”

Munden is the dispatcher for the St. Joseph Police Department. She also works at the El Paso Bar and Grill and Kay’s Kitchen, both in St. Joseph. In her scarce spare time, she also sells Avon products.

Munden has become an intrepid polar plunger, year after year. Her team this year was named “Mary, Mark and the Rest of the Family.” The team was comprised of Munden, her boyfriend Mark Welch of Sartell, Welch’s younger sister Grace and Grace’s boyfriend, Blake. Altogether, the team members earned the $1,665 amount.

It’s not too late to donate money to Special Olympics Minnesota. Checks can be made out to “Special Olympics Minnesota” in care of MaryBeth Munden, P.O. Box 546, St. Joseph, MN 56374. Contributors can also stop at the St. Joseph Police Department and drop off a check there. Department hours are 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m.

To donate online, go to www.plungemn.org/plunger/marybethmunden.
