www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Thursday, December 17, 2015 | 10 Courage Polar Bear Dip Jan. 1 at Coronation Park On Jan. 1, 2016 people from all over Canada -- and some from farther afield -- will plunge into Lake Ontario's chilly waters off Coronation Park to ring in the New Year. The Courage Polar Bear Dip, now in its 31st year, is an annual tradition that raises funds to support World Vision Canada water projects in developing countries. The Jan. 1 dip -- one of the largest events of its kind in Canada -- runs 12:303 p.m. and features a costume contest, live entertainment and prizes. The dip, founded by brothers Todd and Trent Courage on a challenge issued by their mom one New Year's Day, will take place at 2 p.m. sharp. This year, funds raised have been dedicated to a clean water project in Rwanda. Residents are encouraged to register for $25 and start collecting pledges. With hundreds expected to attend as both participants and spectators, a shuttle bus will pick up passengers at South Oakville Centre, 1515 Rebecca St., beginning at 12:15 p.m., and will make a continuous loop.
