Grab your bikes and brooms and ride for a good cause

PANAMA CITY, Fla. ( WMBB ) – The Witches of St. Andrews have their bikes and broomsticks ready as they prepare to travel down Beck Ave. on Saturday, October 26th for their 8th annual Pancreatic Cancer Charity Ride.

Along with the ride, there will be games, live music, face painting, and more for attendees to enjoy at no cost.

All riders will depart from Captain’s Table Fish House at 10:30 a.m.

It costs $45 to enter the ride itself and you must be 18 years or older.

The money raised from this annual charity event goes to help cover the everyday expenses of local residents with pancreatic cancer and research for the horrible disease.

“They’ve got enough to worry about without having to worry about their co-pays and deductibles and gas to get to and from the doctor, particularly if they’re going out of town for treatment, which so many people do,” said Witches of St. Andrews member Pat Rea. “Hotels for their loved ones to stay in while they’re in the hospital. These expenses are something they shouldn’t have to worry about and that’s what we try to pay for.”

Everyone who takes part in the ride will also receive lunch from the Captain’s Table.

The restaurant will be closed to the public on Saturday until the event ends.
