Gourmet a la carte dinner buffet featuring traditional and non-traditional Cajun cuisine and decadent desserts (including 500 sugar cookies artfully decorated as Mardi Gras masks by the Council of Catholic Women and friends).
Silent Auction with many handcrafted items by School of Good Shepherd students and local craftspeople. Also auctioned were collectibles and gift items donated by community members and businesses.
Live Auction of 4 one day Park Hopper passes to Walt Disney World; a family weekend fun package with items donated by the Creative Discovery Museum in Chattanooga, Tullahoma Lanes and Arezzo?s; a wine making kit; an autographed photo of Tennessee Titan Eddie George; and an adorable puppy with bed, harness, leash - vaccinations and neuter procedure donated by Animal Care, including a $25.00 gift card from "A New Dog in Town".
Dancing to the lively music of The Respectables. Laissez les bons temps rouler (let the good times roll) and to the music of The Respectables the good times certainly did!
Mardi Gras - a magnifique event, enjoyed by all. See you again next year!
