The Sylvan Lake Witches Paddle

🌊🎉 A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Amazing Paddlers and Kayakers! 🎉🌊

We want to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who participated and donated to support the Sylvan Lake Food Bank this year. Thanks to your generosity, we raised an incredible **$944.00**, including **$600.00** from the flash tattoo event at Celestial Tattoos!

Additionally, we collected a fantastic amount of non-perishable food items. Your contributions will make a significant difference for families in need. We're excited to head to a local grocery store to purchase more items, including school snacks and other essentials to help create hearty meals.

Together, we've made a wonderful impact on our community, and we appreciate everything you’ve done to help squash hunger in our town. Thank you for your kindness and support! ❤️

🌊🧙‍♀️ A Heartfelt Thank You to Sylvan Lake! 🧙‍♀️🌊

We want to extend our deepest gratitude to the town of Sylvan Lake for being such an incredible sponsor of the Sylvan Lake Witches Paddle! Your support has made a tremendous difference, allowing us to raise vital funds while keeping this event low to no cost for our wonderful community.

Without your generosity, none of this would have been possible. Thank you for helping us create a magical experience that brings everyone together. We appreciate your commitment to our community and look forward to many more amazing events together!

A heartfelt thank you to Meghan Hanson and Joe Iwanicki for stepping up and lending a hand to our community! Your support in setting up the paddle registration and keeping us cozy with coffee and hot chocolate has made a world of difference. It’s truly inspiring to see our representatives actively participating and helping us put together such a fantastic event for charity. Together, we’re making a positive impact!

‼️ IMPORTANT UPDATE ‼️

Due to the change in weather (and the impact this has on lighting), the Walk-In $100 Flash Witches Paddle Tattoo Event hosted by Celestial Tattoos will now take place at their home studio, just one block up Main from the paddle.

✨ 50% of all proceeds will be donated to the Sylvan Lake Food Bank ✨

This change ensures safety, comfort, and quality for everyone joining us for this magical day!

📍 New Location: Celestial Tattoo Studio – #1 5020 50th Street (Moon & Lotus)

Thank you for your understanding and support—we can’t wait to see you there! 🖤🔮

As we approach the paddle event, we want to address parking concerns.

Parking downtown can be challenging, especially for donation drop-offs and transporting paddle boards and kayaks to the west side of the pier. We are working to secure a designated drop-off area boards and kayaks , but please note that we cannot launch from the large parking lot at Lakefront Park due to lack of permission. This lot will also be used for movie screenings, and we cannot guarantee parking availability there.

To help, we suggest carpooling to reduce congestion. You can drop off your equipment with us while you find parking. Donations will be accepted at the pier and at Moon & Lotus, with nearby parking lots available just north and south of the railway tracks.

Thank you for your understanding.
