Mead Rd. Mardi Gras
"Throw me something, Mister!"
If you think that is something you'll only hear in New Orleans, think again!! It all began in 2005 when our oldest son began kindergarten. That huge moment in Billy's life sounded alarm bells for us, as we realized that for the first time since the 1980's I wouldn't be trekking to New Orleans to celebrate my high holiday. So in the interest of familial harmony, David

π TBT: Mardi Gras Magic! πβ¨
Remember that time when Winnona Park Elementary brought the partying to the Mead Rd. Mardi Gras parade and won Best Float? π¨π Thanks again to all that joined us!!!
From feathered masks to jazzy beads, and of course, the tunes that got everyone dancing, it was a day filled with fun, laughter, and a whole lot of CREW spirit.
We couldnβt have done it without our amazing WPES families.
