Everyone who knew Cody knew of his love for “The River” — participating in the Polar Bear Dip event annually helps us to celebrate Cody and keep that love alive. Your commitment has inspired us to be able to carry on with this event every year. It is through your love and generosity that we are able to look forward to the future, knowing that Cody’s legacy and love for “The River” will live on forever. We thank all of you for that!

We have been so fortunate to have your support since we began participating in this event in 2011. It is because of you that we have been able to raise an incredible cumulative total of over $2XX,000 over the past 13 years. Our team’s contributions have helped to fund many important projects at River Hospital to help support our community.

It is our hope that if you are able, you will once again participate in this fundraising event along with us, in memory of Cody. We humbly seek and appreciate any contributions that help us in reaching a goal that we can be proud of and that will spread the giving spirit to the Alexandria Bay community and beyond. 

The Polar Bear Dip has been raising money for River Hospital in Alexandria Bay, NY for over 30 years. By joining this event you are joining thousands of people who have made a difference for River Hospital over the years. This year, more than ever no matter how you dip what is important is that you help us continue the Dip tradition for River Hospital!
