Krewe of Nereids Parade 2018

2/4/2018

All parades are great, but we’re pretty sure the all-woman Nereids Krewe can safely call its event the Superbowl of Hancock County parades. Nereids is 51 years old this season and and looks lovelier every year!

Krewe of Kids Parade 2018

2/3/2018

It's too cute for words, but this parade is also lovely on a deeper level - it starts out at Dunbar Village assisted living home with children handing beads to elders who are enlivened by all the excitement.

The king and queen of Dunbar Village toast the King and Queen of the Kids in a lovely passing of the Mardi Gras torch from one generation to another.
