Calling all Witches & Warlocks! Inner Banks Outfitters is hosting the 2nd-annual Witches Paddle, and we’re blowing it out of the water with this year’s event!
We’re teaming up with Pitt Street Brewing on the Pamlico, adding a costume contest (with prizes!) and making it a fundraiser for Sound Rivers, the nonprofit that’s been monitoring and protecting the Tar-Pamlico since 1981.
Dress to the witchy (or warlock-y) nines; bring your own vessels (kayaks/canoes/paddleboards, nothing motorized); and we’ll set off on an evening paddle of the Washington waterfront with a fly-by at Pitt Street Brewing on the Pamlico (the costume contest judges’ hangout).
Judges will choose one finalist in the following categories: Witchiest Witch (or Warlock); Spookiest Ride (best-decorated vessel); and Best Howl-O-Ween Duo (for those bringing their spirit canines along for the ride!), then they’ll decide who takes first-, second- and third-place overall!
Timeline:
4:45 p.m. Meetup/unload vessels on the Washington waterfront (kayak launch at the west end of the waterfront);
5 p.m. (VERY) brief meeting about paddle route;
5:15 p.m. Launch;
6:30 p.m. Judges announce winners at Pitt Street!
Top prize is TWO tickets to the best party on the Pamlico: the Sound Rivers Oyster Roast on Nov. 15!
This event is free and open to the public. The only thing we ask is that participants make a donation to Sound Rivers. We’ll have a donation bucket on site.
We had a great time last year — this year, we’re gonna make it epic!
