The Polar Bear Plungers are a merry band of friends, alumni, teachers, campers, and staff who believe in the transformative power of sleep-away camp at Camp Fitch YMCA. By fundraising for the Fitch for All Initiative our Plungers help bring to our shore kids who need financial support to experience our great camp on a Great Lake.
Polar Bear is an old summer camp tradition to start every day with a quick swim: our Plungers take this to next level for the Fitch for All Initiative by being the first to swim each year -- in the icy waters of Lake Erie the weekend of April 24th or remotely in icy waters of their choosing!
