Witches Ride 2023

Every year on the Saturday before Halloween, there is an event held here in the park called the Witches Ride.

A bunch of people dress up, mostly as witches, gather in the park on the basketball court, do a little dance, and then rides bikes for a couple of laps around the park.

Then they go to the Hub Tavern and enjoy a frosty witches brew or two.

Today was that day!

It was a pretty chilly day so I’m surprised by the number of people that showed up. We decided not to ride but to beat the crowd to the Hub.

The other event we wanted to see was the annual Hub Tavern Pumpkin Coloring Contest. Susan and I each had an entry.

This is her entry.

And here is mine.

There were only six entries so we knew we had a pretty good chance of scoring some Hub booty. Frankly, the other entries were pitiful.

I must admit that I liked Susan’s the best. And so did the judges.

Susan won a nice metal Halloween basket with some stuff in it. I won a “Pac2” shirt and a Hub travel mug.

Another great day here on the park.
