Heart of the Hamptons is pleased to announce the return of its highly anticipated annual fundraiser, The Polar Bear Plunge, where hundreds of plungers – often in festive costumes – jump into the chilly water of the Atlantic Ocean to help support local people in need.

This year’s plunge will take place at Cooper’s Beach in Southampton Village on Saturday, December 9th at 9:30am. Participants and fans will enjoy hot drinks and food in the Cooper’s Beach Pavilion after the plunge, and all plungers will receive a special Polar Bear Plunge hat.
