DESCRIPTION

Join the Friends of Ichetucknee Springs State Park for the 10th annual new year tradition of taking a quick dip in the park’s headspring.

The friends group will provide giveaways for Iche Nippy Dippers! Wondering how the water temperature will feel? Dippers say the colder it is outside, the better it feels inside. This year’s dip will be held in memory of Earl Kinard, who started this tradition more than 80 years ago.

  • Hot cocoa, coffee and a bonfire will be available.
  • Money raised by the event will go directly to supporting the park and its mission goals.
