About the event
Join us on the Wave of Change.
The Lake Mohawk Witches Paddle was established to empower women to find the courage to live life authentically. Supporting DASI, 100% of proceeds support women building a new life.
The Lake Mohawk's Witches Paddle begins at Lake Mohawk's Beach 1, where women, wearing their favorite Witch costume, grab their paddleboard, decorate it, and hit the waters for a great cause. This is a family event, and all are welcome to cheer on their favorite paddling Witches.
This event is NOT for beginners, and all paddleboarders must know how to swim and sign a waiver stating they will be paddling at their own risk. There will be three paddleboard waves this year (registration for the Teen Witch and Wee Witches will be opening at a later date):
- Witches Paddle 5k ages 16+
- Teen Witch Paddle** 1 mile ages 12+
- Wee-Witches Paddleboard Parade** 1/2 mile ages 8+
Paddlers must have all safety equipment to participate, including:
- Coastguard approved PFD
- Leash
