2020 Polar Bear Plunge

Annual event raises funds for Waupaca firefighters

Area residents celebrated New Year’s Day by taking the Polar Bear Plunge.

Although the temperature barely rose above freezing Monday, Jan. 1, participants braved the chilly water of Lime Kiln Lake.

Held annually at Becker Marine on the Chain O’ Lakes in Waupaca, the event helps raise money for the Waupaca Area Fire District.
