New
Item:
Please make a sign of your home town, city and state, that you
can hold up for the Mardi Gras parades. People on the floats are
looking for out of town and out of state folks to throw hands
full of beads, toys, etc. Be creative! But remember you must be
able to hold it up as the floats stream by slowly, also if you
would like, create a costume to wear. Mardi Gras theme is wild,
and colorful, with major colors are purple, green, and gold. We
are hoping to make some of the Lafayette parades, Carencro, and
Opelousas. Bring sturdy bags for bead collections.
