Get ready for the second annual Polar Bear Plunge at Golden Gardens.

The 2011 plunge is at 10 a.m. on New Year’s Day with awards being handed out for costumes. “Take the plunge, it’s not cold, it’s invigorating!” Rick Sandvig writes in the events calendar submission. Afterward, head to the Lock & Keel (5144 Ballard Ave NW) for a hot toddy to warm up. According to the National Weather Service highs on Saturday will be in the upper 30s. Of course we’ll be there, on the beach, with our camera.
