Barrington Beach hosting New Year’s Day Dip
Event combines polar plunge with a fund-raiser
People are invited to usher in the new year with an exhilarating swim at Barrington Beach on Jan. 1.
The Barrington Business and Community Association’s first-ever “New Year’s Day Dip in the Bay” will combine a polar plunge with a fund-raiser.
Bryan Hoffman, a Barrington resident and chairman of the BBCA, said the event will raise money for Tap-In (Touch A Person In Need) and the Barrington Lions Club Scholarship Fund.
The BBCA event will begin at 1 p.m. on Jan. 1, with the actual swim set for 1:30. Hoffman said he considered scheduling the event for noon, but first checked the tide chart — it showed that low tide will be at about 11 a.m. on Jan. 1.
