The Mat-Su Sertoma Club was founded in 2009. Many Valley residents are familiar with the annual event we coordinate, Mat-Su Plunge “The Original Valley Dip!”, that has raised almost $300,000 for local non-profit organizations. The plunge is scheduled for February 9, 2019, and is one of the Valley’s great winter events to attend.
