ABOUT POLAR PLUNGES
Polar plunges are invigorating events where participants immerse themselves in freezing cold water, often during the winter months or in icy bodies of water. These plunges are known for their adrenaline rush and the challenge they pose due to the cold. Many believe that polar plunges have health benefits, such as boosting circulation, reducing inflammation, and increasing endorphin levels, resulting in a natural high. Despite the cold, plunges foster a sense of community and accomplishment for those brave enough to take the plunge.

ABOUT ARC’S SIGNATURE BRUNCH
Named to OpenTable’s Top 100 Brunches in Canada, ARC’s award-winning bottomless brunch features unlimited tasting plates of your favourite brunch dishes, crafted with fresh, local ingredients.
