Fourteen years ago, several brave souls took to the frigid waters of Lake Habeeb at Rocky Gap State Park and kicked off what has become a March tradition in Allegany County – the Hooley Plunge. Now in its fourteenth year, the Hooley Plunge has become the largest single day fundraising event in the county, raising money for the Special Olympics of Allegany County and several other local programs for the developmentally disabled. 2017 saw over 600 participants take the Plunge and raise over $168,000. This year, the Hooley Plunge is scheduled for Saturday, March 3 at 1 pm. Members of the Alhambra Wamba Caravan #89 with Alhambra members Murray Gornall and Rob Adams as co-chairmen coordinate the Hooley Plunge. Adams tells WCBC News it’s a fun day for a great cause…
