A Rich Tradition
This year marks the first year of the Coffin Races, which are inspired by a rich tradition observed across the country for over three decades. The races honor the legacy of a local blacksmith who became a beloved figure in the community, contributing to the unique spirit of this event.
The Story Behind the Coffin Races
Berwick's Coffin Races are held in remembrance of Otto Jenkins, a local blacksmith who tragically faced a dark fate. He was buried alive by a political rival who desired his land. To this day, it’s believed that Otto walks at night, safeguarding his land, now the site of Tri-County Lumber and Supply, bringing smiles to local children.
