Witches Bike Ride Fundraiser

Calling all “witches”! Downtown Hokes Bluff, Maraella Winery, and Modern Woodmen will play host to the wildest and wackiest witches for a whimsical Halloween-themed bike ride benefiting Hokes Bluff Elementary, Middle, and High Schools. Modern Woodmen of America is matching up to $500.00 raised.

Witches dress in their most creative costumes and ride their decorated “broomcycles” though the streets of Hokes Bluff, throwing out candy and small trinkets to children who line up along the posted route.. If you don’t feel comfortable riding a bike, you can come join in the fun by dressing up and volunteering to help.

Bikes may begin lining up at Maraella Winery at 8:30 AM and the 9-mile (for 9 lives) ride will begin at 9:00 AM and end back at Maraella Winery, where all riders can enjoy some brew (water, soft drinks, and 2 wine tickets/person) and some spooky snacks.
