The 38th annual Jacksonport Polar Bear Club swim saw an estimated 800-900 swimmers enjoy a delightful day on the beach today! With a water temperature of 34 degrees and an air temperature of 28 degrees, the large crowd celebrated New Year's Day with a dip in Lake Michigan. A boisterous crowd cheered on the 800-900 swimmers, who hailed from 18 different states in the USA.
The event wouldn't be possible without the loyal support of our volunteers in the registration pavilion, the Jacksonport Fire Dept, Loud Entertainment DJ Service and most of all the crazy souls that take the plunge to celebrate the start of a new year in Jacksonport. Thanks to one and all and we'll see you next year!

No ice on the beach! What a fantastic day for a swim. See you at 12 noon!
