Okay folks… this is it… start mustering up your courage… for the Courage Brothers 26th annual and largest Polar Bear Dip in Canada!!!
It’s New Years Day… I know you’re not busy… and it’s the perfect cure for a hangover! (as in, a hangover will be the least of your problems after this!)
I’ve never done it before and am as nervous as you… but let’s just do it! It’ll be great… the first LOST Swim of the year!!! It is literally just a little dip and anyone can do it… even you. People do it in costumes, old or young, big or small… I think we all need to do it with our LOST swim caps on (I’ll bring some extras) to show off the Team!
Here is the link to the website… http://www.polarbeardip.ca/ … but all you really need to know is be at Coronation Park in Oakville, just a few k’s west of where we usually meet, at 2:00 pm! The festivities go from 12:30 – 3:00… but the dip is at 2:00 pm SHARP! Just show up… I’ll be there… and hopefully be standing in a crowd of shivering people with yellow swim caps on!!!
Feel free to bring some of your wimpy friends to cheer… and hold your towel… see you there!!!
PS. it will make swimming in June seem positively tropical… actually check the weather tab… it’s not even that cold… 44F / 7C… oh, no wetsuits though! 😉
Cheers,
Rob
My daughter Jennifer and I will be there – 2nd year! I agree that it’s well worth the 30 seconds!
I will be there with my two girls. This will be my twelfth consective year doing the Polar Bear Dip. Well worth the 30 seconds.
