*CANCELLED* FROST - Group Polar Plunge at Departure Bay Beach

  • VIU Students' Union - Building 193 900 Fifth Street Nanaimo, BC, V9R 5S5 Canada (map)

Event cancelled due to the increase and sudden surge of the Omicron variant. Our priority is to keep our campus community safe.

Join us for a group polar plunge on Departure Bay Beach (look for the blue VIUSU tent on the beach across from Drip Coffee)! This event will wrap-up our 2022 Frost Winter Festival series and will include free coffee and hot chocolate from Drip Coffee, as well as prizes for best solo and group costumes.

Group or solo swimmers can RSVP here to let us know if you're coming. We encourage everyone to dress up in costume (ex. polar bears, fish, penguins, narwals, etc). We'll have a photographer on site to capture the event. **Please bring your own towel and reusable mug for a hot drink.

Schedule:
9:45am: Beach photos
10:00am: PLUNGE
10:05am: Free Coffee and Hot Chocolate
