Orlando Polar Bear Club?
Filed in Event Update, Orlando News | 23 October, 2008

You'll find Polar Bear Clubs in cities all over the frozen North. Members of these organizations gather every year to "take the plunge" into frozen waters… just for the thrill (and chill!) of it. I guess it's one of those experiences that can't be explained. If you're meant to participate… you just kinda know!
Some of the clubs — like the Coney Island Polar Bear Club — have been hosting cold-water swims for more than one hundred years!
We've just learned that Orlando will be the newest city to have its own branch of the famed Polar Bear Club. Yes, as in Sunny Orlando.
The details are still a secret, but organizers have released a date for their official debut – Friday, Nov. 28. Watch this blog for further updates.

While we don't know where Orlando's polar plunge will be held, we can assume it won't be at the following Orlando landmarks:
5. Kissimmee's Lake Tohopekaliga
4. Disney's Blizzard Beach
3. SeaWorld's Shamu Stadium
2. South Beach Pool at Gaylord Palms Resort
1. Gatorland
Stay tuned…
