ARCGIS: Distance from one point to many polygons

I'm new to ArcGIS.

I'm using ArcMap 10.1 and have a shape file of polygons of municipalities. I also have the coordinates of the centroids of the polygons (if I need to use them). 
I want a column in my attributes table which gives me, for each polygon, the distance to one specific point (lat 37N long 16E). I've been fiddling around with the PromixityProximity Toolbox (under Analysis Tools), but don't know where to enter the coordinates of the specific point.

Thanks for your help!
