Sun and calm waters made for the perfect day for the third annual witchs’ paddle. Approximately 30 dressed in hats and capes, and accompanied by pumpkins and dogs met at Shipyard Cove Saturday, Oct. 28 and paddled to the Spring Streed dock. Many paddledboarded but some kayaked, canoed, others rowed, and at least one sailed.
At the Spring Street Dock visitors and islanders alike gathered to cheer them on.
