New Year's Day Charleston Area Polar Bear Plunges--Join in on the Fun

Come Freeze Your Bills Off - 8th Annual "Bill Murray Look-A-Like Polar Bear Plunge"

We will pay homage to one of Charleston's funniest residents, Bill Murray. All attendees are encouraged to come dressed as their favorite Bill Murray character and "freeze their Bills off." Murray's Bob Wiley character in "What About Bob" is my favorite followed by Phil Connors of "Ground Hog Day." The Polar Bear Plunge rounds out the weekend of New Year festivities of Folly Beach including the Flip Flop Drop and Fireworks on New Year's Eve.

The annual plunge will take place beachside at the Tides Hotel and will include a costume contest, commemorative t-shirts, and of course, a plunge into the "chilly" Atlantic! All attendees are encouraged to come in costume, especially as your favorite Bill Murray character, and be ready to 'freeze your bills off'. See you there.
