The Ultimate Boxing Day Challenge - Penguin Dip to Support Red Roof Retreat

💕 A Message from Krystle :

Raising money for differently abled children can make a meaningful impact on their overall well-being. Let’s come together to make an influence on their journey towards a brighter future!

Dare take the plunge(s) in support of Red Roof Retreat

How much would someone have to pay you to do the Penguin Dip?? (FYI, it's going to charity)

A NOTL tradition for over 40 years, the Penguin Dip is one of the crazier cold plunges out there. It's not about 1 dip in the cold waters of the Niagara River, it's a total of 3 consecutive dips and to say the least, it is not for the faint of heart. The Penguin Dip has always raised funds for our local charity, Red Roof Retreat. This year we are encouraging people to join the team and take the plunge (well 3 plunges) and do so while trying to raise a little money for a great cause. 

Join the team, challenge a friend or family member, and help raise some money for the annual Penguin Dip on December 26th (Boxing Day). 

It all goes down at 1 pm at Balls Beach, 90 River Beach Drive, NOTL. 

What you need to know

  • There will be a heated cube truck to change in at the beach.
  • Due to ice and rocks please wear safe footwear (no bare feet).
  • Have to go in the water 3X: 1st dip all go in, 2nd dip head under, and 3rd dip stay in for a group photo.

Thank you to everyone who donated and participated this year! Looking forward to growing this event next year and raising even more funds for Red Roof. If anyone is interested in helping to scale the event and get some more challenges out there I am all ears. Total this year is just over CAD 3100. Thanks again, and all the best in the New Year!
