Bare Feet

It's another year for polar bear plunges up and down the coast at the Jersey Shore. This year the plunge has more significance than dunking into the frigid waters. Many northern beaches were hard hit by Sandy and had so much debris on the beach.

Shore towns have remained committed to their tradition and continued with plunges only after major sand sifting on the beaches. The beaches are looking so much better every day. I was more thrilled to see plungers bare feet in the sand than to watch them dunk. With all the focus on our beaches, they will be ready for summer 2013!
