 est! It is one of the best parts of the plunge regardless of whether y
 ou are a participant or an on-looker! The fun is the same!! The costum
 e contest has four categories: male, female, youth and group. To join 
 in the costume contest, just come down to the main tent on the beach a
 nd look for the contest registration table. Registration is from 10 a.
 m. to 1 p.m. If watching the craziness is more your style, then be und
 er the main tent at 1:15 to help the judges decide the winners!\n\nA f
 ew simple rules:\n\nWhen you register, you must be in costume. The jud
 ges are already starting to size you up!!!\nYour costume must be in go
 od-taste and lawful! (Good taste is determined by the judges so you ha
 ve some leeway but if you push it too much the local police department
  might end up with the final say, and that we would like to avoid)\nNe
 w for 2009 is the \"BOOGIE DOWN THE BOARDWALK\". Join us at Noon for t
 he parade of costumes down the Boardwalk! Get in your costume and meet
  us at noon at 6th street to show off your creativity!!!\n\nCostume co
 ntest winners will be announced at the conclusion of the contest. The 
 winners of the Mega Office Furniture Extreme Team Challenge and the in
 dividual who raised the most money will be announced just prior to the
  plunge. All other team awards will be posted on the Plunge Web site b
 y Sunday morning so we can ensure the accuracy of the money count.\n\n
