Polar Bear Dip 2026

Dedicated to Ty Freyer

As some of you may know, a group of our friends and family will be jumping in this year’s Polar Bear Dip to raise money for River Hospital in Alexandria Bay. The Polar Bear Dip was always one of Ty’s favorite winter events at the river—something he looked forward to every year. I’ll never forget the first year he did it: the exact smile on his face after the crowd went wild and he won “Best Jump” with a gainer. That joy is something we will always carry with us. This year, to honor Ty’s legacy, we will all be jumping under the team name “Frosty Freyers,” in loving memory of Ty Freyer. We are raising money with a big goal—one that carries special meaning. The Freyer family has graciously offered to match every dollar raised (up to $5,000) in honor of Ty. We are incredibly honored to be jumping and raising funds for the River Hospital in a way that celebrates Ty’s spirit, joy, and love for this event. Thank you for supporting, remembering, and honoring Ty with us. ?❄️
