The Cave Spring Downtown Development Authority is ‘just dying’ for participants in the first-ever Coffin Race, slated for Saturday, October 18th. The event is described as part DIY derby, part Halloween spectacle, and 100% unforgettable.
Curtis Burch, Board Member, says that registration costs $100 for each five-person team and is available online at www.cavespring.ga.gov/events.
Specifications for the coffin build and further details are also available on the website.
Check in is set for 1 pm at City Hall with the race at 2:30 pm. Awards will be given to the best entries. Each of the teams will consist of four pushers and one rider, all dressed in costume, according to Burch, who adds that a parade will be held that evening at 6:30 pm.
