The Chicago Polar Bear Club (CPBC) is hosting their 25th Annual Polar Plunge, continuing a long tradition of fundraising to help local families challenged by difficult circumstances. This year the CPBC has again committed to supporting five Chicagoland families with our fundraising efforts, aiming to raise $150,000 to reach a lifetime fundraising total of over $1 million. Hundreds of participants from Chicago and the surrounding region will jump into the icy waters of Lake Michigan to raise funds to support local, Chicago families, as part of the CBPC’s milestone 25th Annual Polar Plunge. This year Polar Plunge will take place on Saturday, Jan. 24th from 11a.m., to 1p.m. Plunge will take place at Noon on Oak Street Beach. For more information, visit www.chicagopolarbearclub.com.
