Thanks for the invite. I could do that easy. I rinse off with cold every time I take a shower. Trouble is, I'm pretty sure I wont feel like driving to Port Angeles on New Years morning.... Good luck....

Well, luckily for you, there is a similar event in Seattle:
http://www.seattle.gov/parks/aquatics/PolarBearPlunge.htm
Last year there were all kinds of costumes (my favorite was a woman in an inflated cow suit... not sure how the inflating fan took to being dunked in Lake Washington, though). It's a fun time, and it's at noon so you don't have to get up TOO early.

Once again, I have to decline. Not just due to the cold, but I will be ringing in the New Year in San Fransisco!
