So at this point, what are some of the things that y'all really need to get the word out about to make it a successful event?
Well, so first, we're super excited about having Mardi Gras in downtown Port Arthur.
People throughout the community are energized about it and can't wait for the parades, the floats, the beads, the carnival food, the rides, and all the vendors.
And, you know, just the joy of walking down Proctor Street and seeing everyone you ever knew along with their families.
And Mardi Gras really has something for everyone, you know, every age, every culture.
But Lachelle and I are here today to talk about volunteers because that is something that we really need.
And so if you've ever volunteered for a Mardi Gras, you know that volunteering is probably even more fun than just being a bystander because you're really part of it.
And you get the wonderful opportunity to help make a really fun and great event for the families in our community.
