More than 100 people braved some chilly temperatures to take part in the 52nd Polar Bear Day Saturday afternoon in Lake Havasu City at London Bridge Beach.

Havasu locals and visitors waded into the 53-degree water to earn their patch from the Havasu Boat and Ski Club. The air temperature was 63 degrees at the time of the plunge.

Some preferred to dip a hand or a foot in the water to earn their “Chicken” patch.

Here are photos of the event.
