Polar Plunge Update!

IMPORTANT UPDATE — PLEASE READ 🚨

We just heard directly from our GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ representative, and we want to share this as soon as we learned it.

❌ NO T-SHIRTS ALLOWED DURING THE PLUNGE

➡️ If participants wear t-shirts, the plunge will NOT count toward the record.

We sincerely apologize for any confusion this may cause. We’re sharing updates in real time and passing along information exactly as we receive it so everyone has the most accurate guidance possible.

This is a non-negotiable Guinness requirement, and following it ensures every brave dip counts toward the record.

Thank you for your patience, flexibility, and help spreading the word as we make history together. ❄️🐻

Here is YOUR chance to kick off 2026 in style and (hopefully) call yourself a WORLD RECORD HOLDER!!! Pacific Multisports will be there to help with the official count and add our name to the list of record holders.

⏳ Time is running out to pre-register for the Polar Bear Plunge!

📝 Online pre-registration closes TOMORROW 12/31/25 at 12:00 PM.

This cutoff is necessary so we can print reports, organize check-ins, and set ourselves (and our volunteers!) up for success on plunge day.

Miss the online window? No worries!
👉 Same-day registration opens at 8:00 AM on New Year’s Day at all three check-in locations.

If you already know you’re plunging, save yourself time and register now. Future-you (and our check-in crew) will thank you ❄️🐻www.birchbaywa.org
