Long Beach Polar Bears Holds 2023 Super Bowl Splash for Make-a-Wish Foundation

The Long Beach Polar Bears held its annual Super Bowl Splash on Feb. 12, Super Bowl Sunday. It was the 23rd year of the popular event for charity.

Before heading to their television screens to watch the Big Game, Long Islanders plunged into the ocean in Long Beach. The event raised funds for the Make-a-Wish Foundation‘s Metro New York/Western New York chapter.
