Event Description

Kick off the New Year with something brand-new, bold, and refreshingly cold - the Buxton Civic Association's first annual "BCA Polar Plunge". Join residents, visitors, and supporters as we hit the beach at Ramp 43 - and plunge into the Atlantic for an energizing start to 2026 - all while raising funds to support the BCA's mission to create a unified voice for the community, make connections, and enhance the living experience of those who share our little piece of paradise and to protect and preserve Buxton’s shoreline.

Each participant will receive a BCA Polar Plunge t-shirt. After the dip, warm up with hot chocolate and local coffee, courtesy of Blue Room Roasters. Additional t-shirts will be available for purchase on-site the day of the event.

Not going to be in Buxton? We are offering a virtual option for $20. Send us a video of your virtual plunge - another ocean, pool - maybe a bathtub filled with ice? We'll share a montage of the clips on social media!
