Once again, Great Neck resident Erin Lipinsky will be “Freezin’ for a Reason” at the 16th Annual Town of North Hempstead Polar Plunge.

Last year, Erin raised almost $12,000, making him the top individual fundraiser of the event. This year will be Erin’s sixth plunge and his goal is to break last year’s record. The event will take place on Saturday, Mar. 7 at North Hempstead Beach Park in Port Washington.
