Calling all witches, goblins and ghouls! Come join us for a fun paddle around Wickford Harbor! We are also offering a Costume Contest with some great prizes!
There will be 3 categories for the contest with a winner for each category:
1. Best Witch
2. Best Warlock
3. Best Dressed Pet
Day of the Event:
- If you are participating in the costume contest, then we ask that you arrive between 10am-11:15am so that you can get your numbered bib.
- Your bib must be visibly pinned for the judges to see.
- The parade will be leaving the Gardner's launch at noon and then paddling towards the town dock behind the village shops and parking lot, where the judges will be waiting.
- After the judges have scored you, you will then be able to fly away on your broomstick and stay out as long as you want!
Safety Information:
- PFDs must be worn by all paddlers to be in accordance with Rhode Island law.
- Please dress appropriately for the air and water temperature. We recommend neoprene or synthetic layers and neoprene booties since the temperatures are dropping.
Registration:
- There is a $10 registration fee (All funds will be donated to the North Kingstown Food Pantry).
- Registration is completely online and virtual waivers must be signed. We will not be accepting walk-ups for the costume contest.
- Unfortunately, since it's after our used boat sale, we will not have boards or kayaks to rent. This event is only open to paddlers with their own equipment.
