Witch Ride

Achievement Centers for Children & Families (ACCF) will hold its 12th Annual Witches of Delray Beach Bike Ride on Saturday, October 28th from 7:30 a.m.- 11:30 a.m. It will start at Delray Beach City Hall and ends at the Green Market in Old School Square. Other events during the month-long celebration will include the Witchy Walk at the Sandoway Discovery Center, Witch Trivia at Tim Finnegan’s, and the main fundraising event, the Witches Brew at Tim Finnegan’s on Friday, October 20th from 6 p.m.- 9 p.m.

More than 300 witches will wear their best witch-wear and extravagantly decorated brooms (bikes) to ride through scenic Downtown Delray Beach, along the ocean on A1A, with a water stop at the Sandoway Parking Lot, all guided by the Delray Beach Police Department. At the conclusion of the Ride, the party will continue at the Old School Square Outdoor Pavilion Stage with music, and awards presentation for “Best Costume,” “Best Witch Cackle,” “Best Decorated Broom (Bike),” and “Best Group Theme.”

In addition, long-time event partner Tim Finnegan’s Irish Pub in Delray Beach will host the signature fundraiser in support of the Witches Ride, the Annual “Witches Brew” on Friday, October 20th.

Funds raised from the Witches’ events directly benefit Delray Beach’s Achievement Centers for Children & Families, a community-based organization dedicated to serving under-resourced children and families in Delray Beach and surrounding communities.

“Our Witches community raised over $28,500 last year to support ACCF and the Children & Families we serve within the community,” said ACCF Chief Development Officer Jessica Hall. “We could not make this magic without Alpha & Beta Witches and our Flying Monkeys [volunteers]. Our Sponsors are faboolous. The entire team at ACCF thanks everyone for their time, energy, sponsorship, and love year after year!”
