The Wild Hunt’s weekend section is always open for submissions. Please send queries to eric@wildhunt.org. Traditionally, the change of the calendar from December 31 to January 1 marks a time to start new habits and to sweep away the debris of the previous year, regardless of whether it was a happy or sad one.

The Tea Drinking Witches of Flint

FLINT, Mich. — In October, the Witches Tea Flint hosted not one but two successful events to raise money for Domestic Violence Awareness in October. Witches Tea Flint is organized by Davonna, Amaunet, and Viki, all from the Greater Flint Area. Originally planned as a single event, the first tea event sold out in just eleven days: so they added a second event that sold out as well. Partnering with their local YWCA of the Greater Flint Area,  the two Witch Tea Flint events and managed to raise over $800.  The events were so well-received; they have decided to do more events.
