Mardi Gras in the Ark-La-Tex is about more than parades and parties. Mardi Gras krewes in our area also engage in a great deal of philanthropy.

Case in point: The Krewe of Elders! This Friday, October 23, the Krewe of Elders will be grilling and serving up hamburgers to the residents and staff of the Northwest Louisiana War Veterans Home on Arthur Ray Teague Parking in Bossier City starting at 11:30. What a wonderful testament to what the Mardi Gras community does to support our community!

And the Krewe of Elders aren't the only ones with giving hearts! In celebration of their new location on Airline Drive in Bossier, Kroger is donating all of the meat being served.
