Hundreds of paddleboarders dress as witches for annual event

This is the moment hundreds of paddleboarders took to the water - dressed as witches.

More than 300 people paddled on a lake in Chatfield State Park in Colorado last week (October 12).

They were taking part in the annual Witch Paddle - an enchanting blend of outdoor fun and Halloween spirit.

Anna Marie Madai, co-founder of Witch Paddle LLC said: "Weather was fantastic so we had an amazing turnout of 307 witches on the water this year."

Launched in 2021 with just 80 participants, Witch Paddle has grown - with last year’s event drawing over 400 participants.
