OCEAN CITY, Md. Jan. 1, 2026 – Atlantic General Hospital Foundation is preparing for its 32nd Penguin Swim on Jan. 1, an event that draws swimmers to the beach each New Year’s Day to support programs at Atlantic General Hospital, according to a release from the foundation. The plunge is scheduled on the oceanfront behind the Princess Royale Oceanfront Hotel at 91st Street. Check-in and registration take place from 9 to 11:30 am, and swimmers enter the water at 12 pm.
All participants must sign up in advance at www.aghpenguinswim.org or register on site before checking in with event staff. The foundation opens the event to individuals and teams, with categories for adults, youth, families, businesses and community groups. Registration completed on or before Dec. 10 costs $30 and includes a short-sleeve event shirt while supplies last. Shirts remain available after that date depending on inventory, and the fee increases to $35 on Dec. 31.
