Special Events

Each Boys & Girls Club, though chartered by the national Boys & Girls Clubs of America, is an independent non-profit 501c3 organization governed by a local volunteer board of directors. Each Club is responsible for its own budget - including raising the revenue required to provide exceptional services to youth. Our Clubs in Detroit Lakes and Perham raise funds mainly through personal charitable contributions, contributions from the business community and service organizations, and through special events. Check out the fun events we offer all year-round - we'd love to see you!

Polar Fest Plunge

The Polar Fest Plunge is a fundraiser for Boys & Girls Club of Detroit Lakes that is held every February during Polar Fest. Full of chills and thrills, this is an event you won't want to miss! Whether you're daring enough to jump into Little Detroit Lake in the middle of winter or just want to cheer someone on - there is something fun for you at the Plunge!
