What's Up, Waveland? February 2020

1/29/2020

Waveland Alderman Jeremy Burke provides details on an important fundraiser coming up, as well as information on the 2020 Krewe of Nereids parade.

M.A.P. (Music.Arts.Practicality.) production of The Lion King Jr. in 2016 was a huge undertaking - and a big hit.

Drawdown Fundraser for M.A.P.
Music. Arts. Practicality (M.A.P.) is sponsoring a $2,500 DRAWDOWN to take place at our Mardi Gras Extravaganza on Sunday, February 9 at the Longfellow Community Center in Bay St Louis. The winner does not have to be present, but we hope everyone will want to attend this fun event. The drawdown tickets are just $20!
A ticket is a great value. Not only does it enter you in the drawdown, but it also admits 2 adults to the extravaganza. (As always at M.A.P. events, kids participate for free). Plus, if you save the stub, it is good for 1 child admission to our summer production Disney's Moana, Jr. with the purchase of an adult ticket.

The fun will include music, food, games, crafts, and the kids' court presentation.
