Polar Bear Plunge at Jones Beach
January 1, 2006
Every January 1st at high noon, the lifeguards of Jones Beach have rung in the new year with a plunge into the Atlantic Ocean, once again led by Reggie Jones Sr., joined by his sons and dozens of Jones Beach lifeguards past, present and future.
Reggie is a living legend (see www.jblifeguard.com), who last year completed his 62nd year as a Jones Beach ocean lifeguard.
