However, in 2018 I managed to make it to English Bay to <em>watch<\/em> the Polar Bear Plunge and cheer on those brave enough to start their year with frigid temperatures. I was impressed by how many families braved the waters together and laughed as the parents rushed out while the kids stayed in the cold water to play.\u00a0 The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/archives\/who-started-the-polar-bear-dip-every-jan-1-anyway-1.5390585#:~:text=Peter%20Pantages%20and%20a%20group,on%20New%20Year's%20Day%201985.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">history of how the Polar Bear Plunge<\/a> started is fascinating, and while I doubt I&#8217;ll make it into the water anytime soon, it&#8217;s also a fun spectator activity. Not every plunge is the same; some have hot chocolate, live music and\/or warming tents available, while others are just a quick run in and out of the water before heading home.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re thinking of doing your first-ever plunge, we&#8217;ve rounded up some tips from experienced participants about how to have a fun experience:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Arrive early to ensure you find a good parking spot. These events typically draw a lot of swimmers <em>and<\/em> spectators.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure you eat beforehand! This will help keep your body a bit warmer as you plunge into the frigid water.<\/li>\n<li>Wear water shoes! The beach and shallow water will be rocky, and that can hurt cold feet.<\/li>\n<li>Bring a towel and warm clothes to change into, including something to keep your head warm when you get out of the water.<\/li>\n<li>If you have a thermos kicking around, fill it with some hot chocolate or other warm beverages to enjoy when you get out of the water.<\/li>\n<li>Have fun with it! Plan a family costume, wear silly New Year accessories, or something to stand out! Some plunges award prizes for best costume.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Did we miss a Polar Bear Plunge?
