We are excited to offer this informative and fun Program on actual Mardi Gras Tuesday. You are invited to learn about the rich history of Mardi Gras from Sally Czerwinski, a native New Orleanian who also spent many years in Baton Rouge. Sally and her husband, have been deeply involved in the culture of Mardi Gras in both cities for over 50 years. Can you imagine belonging to the Krewe of Romany of Baton Rouge and Orpheus, Babylon and Iris from New Orleans? Sally will give us an “up close and personal” look into the REAL Mardi Gras experience like no other!! There is so much to know from traditions, to origins, to terminology and the celebration around the world (it’s religious ties).  There will be prizes for the Most Fabulous Masks!! After all … It’s Mardi Gras!!

Menu:  Chicken and Andouille Sausage Gumbo, Spinach Salad, rolls and butter, classic Bread Pudding

Charity:  For the month of February we would like to support the non-profit organization Refuge for Women by helping them with a Toiletry Drive. Refuge for Women’s Denton facility and safe house provides specialized long-term care and recovery resources for North Texas women who have escaped human trafficking or sexual exploitation. Refuge for Women provides women up to twelve months of safe housing, at no charge to the resident, with around the clock care by trained professionals as residents progress through the recovery program. The Refuge for Women program offers crisis intervention, counseling, life skills training, education completion and job placement to help and support survivors change their lives. According to the National Human Trafficking Hotline, the North Texas area is known to be a hub for human and sex trafficking. Texas ranks second in the country only behind California in number of cases.
