If you witnessed some witches on the water at Sylvan Lake last month, you weren’t hallucinating – it was Luna Moon’s first Annual Witches Paddle benefitting Magic Wheelchair.
“Magic Wheelchair is a nonprofit organization that builds epic costumes for kiddos in wheelchairs — at no cost to families,” with the express mission to “bring communities together to create unforgettable moments for children around the world by transforming their wheelchairs into magic.”
The opportunity to participate in such a worthy cause while at the same time giving us some belly laughs on the water was an event we won’t soon forget. We believe in giving back to the community and we can’t think of a better way to express that than witches on the water at Halloween!
And yes, we were prepared to flip a witch back on the board if necessary – because as always, we’re all about safety first. And yeah, maybe someone fell in and lost their witch accessories, but was still magical!
The goal was to raise $555 - all fives for 5th year anniversary of Luna Moon. We surpassed the main goal and raised over $900!
Check out our photos and footage of the event and share your best costume tricks with us, on and off the water.
Trick, treat, or paddle? What’s next for Luna Moon SUP? We’re heading to the pool, friends. Schedule a class and see you on the water.
Happy Halloween!

SUP Season Highlights 2021
SUP Season Highlights with video and photos
Year in review from the summer season. June to October goes by so fast in a 4 season state. Although this one definitely the longest season to date. The last paddle, literally ended as a fall season witch paddle on a Wednesday night. The lake was silent and we had it all to our selves. I will say it does take the more confident paddlers to end that late in the season. The water is starting to cool down and it gets dark earlier.
A few more highlights that made the season stand out above the rest SUP certifications, Meditation at the yoga pod and girls SUP camp. All of it made it more about learning, connecting and de stressing.
2021 season is a big year, its celebrating the 5 year of Luna Moon SUP. Getting started in the early spring with a few new editions that we are proud to show case.
Looking forward to paddling with you soon! More to come in 2022!
Student Feature
This season has brought out a lot of newbies on the water and they usually have a lot of exciting energy because they are doing something completely new. I love hearing student's perspective on paddle boarding, what their interpretation is of the new adventure on the water.
Sunday morning kayak tour - June 2021
Meet Jeanie Fraser, she went from a kayak tour of the lake to standup paddle boarding. I loved her energy during the kayak lesson, she was amazed by the lake and canals we explored. Probably went out longer than originally planned but it was a beautiful day, we took full advantage of the opportunity.
Jeanie just moved to Sylvan Lake a few months ago and she is living her best life out here on the lake this summer. She never been on a paddle board before until Luna Moon SUP. First started with a land class, took a kayak lesson and then moved on to a standup paddle board on the water. Its amazing, I love watching people evolve!
Such an accomplishment, way to go Jeanie! Thanks for showing up and giving it your all!

with your guidance and instructions
I accomplished what
I never dreamed I could do!"
