10 - The Oakville Beaver Weekend, Saturday December 15, 2007 www.oakvillebeaver.com Ring in the new year at the annual Polar Bear Dip The 23rd Annual Courage Brothers' Polar Bear Dip at Coronation park is bound to start 2008 off with a splash. Just picture the scene -the weather is perfect; sun shining brightly and not a cloud in the sky. It's the perfect day to be on the beach. Suddenly, a cool wind blows in from the west as the thermometer reads a balmy - 14 degrees C. "We're less than a month away from one of the craziest and most exciting events of the winter," says Trent Courage, cofounder of the Dip. The 23rd Annual Courage Brothers' Polar Bear Dip, Canada's largest charitable dip, will support fresh water projects in Sudan through World Vision Canada. "It's water for water," says the dip's other cofounder, Todd Courage. "By jumping into freezing cold water, our supporters will help raise enough money to drill bore holes, build wells, install water pumps and repair damaged wells in four villages in Sudan." The Courage Brothers' Polar Bear Dip started in 1985 when only five dippers plunged into Lake Ontario from a Burlington residence. Now the Courage Brothers' Polar Bear Dip attracts more than 400 dippers and 5,000 spectators to Coronation Park each Jan. 1. "It really is quite an event. With a costume contest, live music, prizes, hot drinks, along with all the excitement and fun, it's a carnival-like atmosphere," says Rob, who has participated in this dip for five years. "But what's most refreshing about dipping into the icy waters of Lake Ontario is the money it raises and the good news that the dip brings to some of the less developed communities around the world." For the past 13 years, The Courage Brothers' Polar Bear Dip has partnered with World Vision to fund water projects in countries such as: · South Africa, · Malawi, · Tanzania, · Honduras, · Nicaragua, · Rwanda, · Afghanistan, · South East Asia (tsunami relief), · Kenya. The fundraising goal for The 23rd Annual Courage Brothers' Polar Bear Dip is $40,000.
