Witches of South Walton are gathering for the12th Annual Witches of South Walton Ride taking off from Gulf Place on Friday, October 30, 2015 at 7:00 a.m. sharp. The Witches Brew is held on the eve of the ride at La Playa where witches can register for the ride and enjoy the night with cocktails and music. The Gathering Brunch takes place just after the Witches Ride, also at La Playa.
The number of witches has grown to well over 200 local women who sport witchy costumes and decorated “broom cycles,” while casting their spell on spectators and cackling along the Scenic 30A. Last year just over 200 witches participated in the ride and brunch, raising $5,500 and making magic for Children’s Volunteer Health Network (CVHN).
Witches are encouraged to come out and register at the Witches Brew on Thursday, October 29 from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at La Playa in Gulf Place. The entry fee is $30. Witches may also purchase $5 raffle tickets at this time and bring any items they would like to donate for the raffle taking place the following morning at The Gathering Brunch.
Yolo Board + Bike at Gulf Place is offering free bike rentals for any witch needing a bike for your Halloween morning ride. Please call or email Ryan, store manager, to reserve your bike. (850)-267-0602.
