Winter Warrior Games for Wellspring set for February 1 on Nantasket Beach

Almost 30 years ago, residents of Hull began taking the dive in the frigid waters of the Atlantic to raise money for Wellspring Multi-Service Center. The formerly titled “Drowned Hogs” polar plunge is reimagined and back as the Winter Warrior Games. With a new look and a new focus on families and some friendly competition, we are proud to continue this local, beloved event.

This year’s Winter Warrior Games for Wellspring takes place on Saturday, February 1, at 9:30 a.m. on Nantasket Beach and 1 p.m. at the Parrot restaurant.

Why this fundraiser?

Wellspring has a rich history here; our mission is to provide support and skills to people facing challenges to their well-being in order to help them achieve independence and self-sufficiency. This year, all proceeds will directly benefit Wellspring’s Adult Education Program.

Your community event - join us!

With the addition of competitive events, Winter Warrior Games ’25 will capture a new audience that celebrates Hull and focuses on building community while raising funds for Wellspring – a truly community-based non-profit. Sponsors will be able to advertise to their community, while directly giving back to it.

Our goal is to really maximize participation this year so you can count on a large audience.
