The 4th annual Wrightsville Beach Polar Plunge is set for New Year’s Day at noon at Crystal Pier. The event sends dozens of participants into the ocean as a test of endurance. Each year, the event raises money for Communities in Schools of Cape Fear, an organization that helps at-risk students in the school system. Participation for adults is $25 and $10 for kids under 12 years of age.
