Theodore Roosevelt Park, Oyster Bay
Festivities start at 1:00PM/The Plunge at 2:00PM

Join the spirited Polar Bears and their supporters as they gather once again on the beach of Theodore Roosevelt Park in Oyster Bay to help raise funds for United Cerebral Palsy Association of Nassau County, Inc. (ucpn). 

The 6th Annual Polar Bear Plunge to benefit the United Cerebral Palsy Association of Nassau County, Inc. (ucpn) will be held once again at the beautiful Theodore Roosevelt Park in Oyster Bay.  Honorary Co-Chairs John Venditto, Supervisor of the Town of Oyster Bay and Assemblyman Harvey Weisenberg from Long Beach along with Chairman Jack Sullivan and the Polar Bear Committee have worked to make this the best plunge ever!

DJ Danny Kelly will be on hand to entertain the enthusiastic crowd and to keep our swimmers and fans warm there will be plenty of good conversation shared over hot soup donated by H.R. Singleton's restaurant and hot coffee and tea donated by Dunkin' Donuts!  We are also grateful to the volunteers from the Atlantic Steamer Fire Company who will be donating and serving delicious hot dogs!

The ucpn is grateful to the Town of Oyster Bay for hosting the swim, all the swimmers, sponsors, volunteers and to all those coming to show support! 

The Polar Bear Plunge is dedicated to the memory of Lenny Ferraro - Co-Chair.  Lenny Ferraro was instrumental in establishing the ucpn Polar Bear Plunge in 2005 and has provided dedicated and tireless service to ucpn for over 25 years as a member of the Board of Directors and through enthusiastic work on   numerous vital agency committees. Lenny, a true friend to all, passed away on December 1, 2008.  This Polar Bear Plunge and all to follow are now dedicated in his honor and memory.
