Gar Woods to host polar swim in Lake Tahoe

Gar Woods Grill & Pier will be hosting the 23rd annual Coolest and Largest Shrinkage event – the Polar Bear Swim on March 2 at 2:30pm following the SnowFest parade in Tahoe City.

Each year hundreds of spectators line the pier and deck to watch hardy souls brave the frigid waters of Lake Tahoe. Participants swim approximately 250 yards in 39 degree water before returning to Gar Woods.
