GALLERY: Torontonians took the plunge at annual Polar Bear Dip

Swimmers headed to Sunnyside Beach for Toronto's annual New Year's Day cold dip

Hundreds of brave Torontonians took to Sunnyside Beach on New Year's Day for the annual Polar Bear Dip. 

The event was organized by Boost Child & Youth Advocacy Centre and takes place near Sunnyside Pavilion every January 1st at noon. 

A DJ booth played music, did a countdown and encouraged the dippers, most of whom were in and out of the lake very quickly. 

Earlier this week, the ice rink at the Bentway was the place for Torontonians to test the temperature in their skivvies.
