On Christmas Day 2014, about 50 hardy souls, young and old alike, ran into 42-degree winter waters at Mattapoisett’s Town Beach with yelps of joy. This annual event raises funds for Helping Hands and Hooves, a non-profit organization in Mattapoisett that provides horseback riding lessons and therapeutic sessions for people with special needs.
