The event is open to all! Spectators are free to stand along the shoreline and watch.

Group plunges start at 12 p.m., 12:30 p.m., and 1 p.m., Participants earn their patch by getting in the water.

Chicken patches are also provided for anyone that dips a toe or even a finger in the water. For you “chickens” out there, entry fee is still $5.
