More than 350 supporters of Special Olympics took the Penguin Plunge at Ocean Beach Park Sunday braving a brisk breeze and chilly water.  Many individuals came with friends and groups from the New London Rugby Football Club and New London High School were also represented.  Although each plunge lasted only a few seconds the memories of the good cheer will carry on for some time to come.
