[RC] Witch Dance Ride - Jack Price

    SERA members, check out the Witch Dance Ride which will be held near 
Houston, Mississippi on October 18th.  The terrain is rolling hills in the 
hardwood forest of the Tombigbee National Forest.  Entry fees are as follows:

     35 mile/ride $50 ($15 off for juniors) starting at 8:00 a.m.
     55 mile/ride $75 ($15 off for juniors) starting at 7:00 a.m.

    There is a camping fee of $5 per trailer each night.  For directions or an 
entry form contact Ride manager Raymond Roland at (662) 456-3854 or (662) 
456-2538.

    There will be a free catfish fry on Friday night for all comers.  A meal 
will be provided to riders on Saturday afternoon, others pay $5 for the 
Saturday meal.    

    A National Park Service sign near the ride site sheds some light on the 
ride's name:

          Witch Dance-the very name conjures visions of eerie midnights,
          swirling black capes, and brooms stacked against a nearby
          tree!  

          The old folks say that the witches once gathered here to dance
          and that wherever there feet touched the ground, the grass
          withered and died, never to grow again.  

          Impossible? - may be so, but look around, look for a hidden spot     
         
          where no grass grows.
