With California style in mind, ice skaters are encouraged to come in their favorite bathing suit and beach blanket apparel on January 1, 2015.
Arrive early; the first 50 ice skaters will receive a plush polar bear hat. Typically, there is a polar bear dance off and a contest for the craziest holiday polar bear bathing suit.
Get your shades, bathing suit and best polar bear attire together and come to the ice rink to take the plunge.
