ANNUAL POLAR BEAR PLUNGE 

This annual event is an opportunity for families and the community to gather and wash away with the bad and welcome in the new. The New Years is a time to celebrate and prepare for what the year can bring. Join in on this free event with challenging one another to slide into the arctic chill. This leap of faith will build out community and makes us stronger for one another.

CHARITY EVENT

The TIFTAREA YMCA proudly hosts the Polar Bear Plunge event for other Not For Profit Organizations in our area. Each of  our contestants will compete against each other to raise the most money for their charity. The individual raising the most for his or her charity, with the stipulation that they must slide down into plunge pool, will receive 100% of the proceeds. Any other charities will receive a 50% split with the TIFTAREA YMCA, if their corresponding representative takes the frigid plunge.
