Polar Bear Plunge Coming to Mission Viejo

Are you brave enough for Mission Viejo's Polar Bear Plunge?

MISSION VIEJO, CA — If you think you can handle the Polar Bear Plunge, then make plans to attend the Sierra Snow Summit on Saturday, January 28. The spa at the Sierra Recreation Center will be transformed into a mini winter wonderland as part of a family-friendly event from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

This fun afternoon will feature more than 180 gallons of artificial snow, winter treats including snow cones and hot chocolate, photo opportunities, games and much more. The heated swimming pool will be open so bring your swim suits to ride the water slide.

While entrance to the event is FREE and includes swimming and the signature Polar Bear Plunge, there is a minimal charge for additional winter activities and concessions. Pre-sale tickets are $5 and include one unlimited Snow Pit wristband and 20 tickets, which is a 40% savings (reference course #4987 at econnect.cityofmission... ). Pre-sale tickets are limited and expected to sell out fast so don’t delay! Activity tickets will also be sold at the event – 20 tickets for $5 and 50 tickets for $10.
