The Krewe of Aquila in Metairie, LA. has their new
website for the beginning of the Season. We would like to
congratulate them on their new online look!
Gretna
May slowly be eliminating its Carnival parades!
Poseidon was first,
by their own hand. Then Ulysses. Now Gretna has
eliminated Ulysses' day from the calendar. This puts
Gretna in the spot of having a parade to run on a
certain day. Is this a rebuild or is Gretna phrasing
out Carnival? Our sources say that Gretna is
looking to totally eliminate the parades because of
budget concerns. We'll stay on top of it!
