Caribruisers To Organize Future Polar Bear Swim In Williams Lake

The Caribruisers Roller Derby League say they have agreed to take the plunge and will be taking over organizing the Polar Bear Swim in Williams Lake.

Although the event has been a traditional way to ring in the New Year, Sunny Dyck says at this time they have not yet set a date.

“We could rush to get all the basic things in place and pull it off but really that would not show our league’s determination to keep the event going, and wouldn’t be as much fun to the people taking the plunge,” she says.

“It’s scary to say a date right now while everyone is on a much deserved holiday and out of the office.”

The Polar Bear Swim was organized for the last 17 years by the Williams Lake Rustlers Rugby Football Club.
