Witches Paddle Lake Lanier 2025

---

Join us for the first-ever Witches Paddle on Lake Lanier! It’s a free, spooky-fun, sunset paddle event where you bring your paddleboard, kayak, or canoe and float through a magical Halloween-themed water parade. 

Rules & vibes:

• Keep it self-propelled — no motorized boats permitted.
  
• Dress up in your most witchy, spooky, or over-the-top costume
   
• Deck out your boards / boats with skeletons, spiders, cobwebs, glow sticks, fairy lights — anything that glows in the dark is welcome
   
• Pets in costume are encouraged
   
• It’s less a “paddle” and more of a floating Halloween parade across the water
