If you ever have the urge to dash into ocean water in the high-30s, perhaps these pics from today’s Seaside Heights Polar Plunge will inform your decision. 🥶 These folks did it anyway, but it was for a good cause: the Polar Plunge raised $2 million for the Soecial Olympics. 7,000 people signed up, but not everyone plunges. Some people stay on dry land, but all take part in fundraising. It was the third polar plunge of the season organized by New Jersey’s chapter of the Special Olympics. Plunges were held in Wildwood in January and in Asbury Park in November. Today’s Polar Plunge was originally scheduled for last month, but was postponed due to our big winter storm. #newjersey #polarplunge #seasideheights 📸 Photos by Jim Lowney .
