About 50 paddlers in witch costumes and decorated boards took part in the annual event, which also raised donations for a local food bank.

  • Around 50 individuals gathered at the Bayview Park boat ramp on Sunday, Oct. 4, for the annual Witch Rock Paddle, traveling toward the White Rock Pier in costume.
  • This annual event offers local paddleboarders a chance to celebrate the Halloween season together, welcoming participants of different ages and experience levels to join the festivities.
