The much-loved Polar Bear Swim will take place this coming Saturday (June 25).
This fund-raising event takes place at the Dragon Peaks Mountain Resort and begins at 12:00 midday.
There are two swimming options – 100m or 25m. There are also many prizes to be won, which could be anything from a few nights’ accommodation to some of the most delicious meals in the valley, and many more in between.

Step 1 – a donation of R100 per swimmer, which must be sent to the following bank account details: Van Zuydam and Swanepoel, First National Bank Account Number 62189582309 with the reference of PoloB, and your name and surname.
Step 2 – email the full list of swimmers’ names and your proof of payment to Belinda, berginfomedia@gmail.com
