Location
Coney Island Boardwalk
Stillwell Ave
Brooklyn, NY 11201

Note: The breakfast with the Polar Bears will start early in AM (time will be shown later).

Shorewalkers presented this event last year for the first time & it was a great experience.

Watch the Polar Bears jump into the ocean wearing beathing suits & smiles.
Join them first for a great breakfast, visit the fantastic NY Aquarium, walk the Boardwalk (your pace & distance or a power walk as the group may jointly decide), and have lunch at one of the many interesting Ukrainian/Russian restaurants along the way.

Bring your mobiles: There will be over 1,000 people there looking and it would be easy to get lost in the crowd.

Dress appropriately for WINTER. Wear layers. Aquarium will be warm.
Bring your cameras. The pictures of the men & women going into the Atlantic with windchill of around "0" will be fun & UTube worthy. We welcome your posting picture on Meetup, but please remember that all pictures will become public property after you do so.

Contribute to the Polar Bear Charity (cost $5.00 to $10.00/person-) and all the Polar Bear events (Breakfest, Aquarium, Polar Bear watching, and the hike) will be free. Sorry lunch not included.

The exact minimum dollar contribution was subject to Polar Bear decision that has not been finalized.
