[Namron] Mardi Gras parade

Fri Jan 4 10:49:38 PST 2013

Might want to check mardigrasspot.com they have a ton of glass beads (more period for SCA) and other great deals. I'd love to participate in the Marsi Gras parade here in Namron, but I'll be in New Orleans at their teensy little Carnival celebration....

I agree, I would like to participate on our own if possible.

The reason I brought it up this early was so that it could be discussed.  Also, if we want to have anything to hand out, beads/candy/noisemakers/whatever, and
want to get a large amount we may want to order online.  I would be willing to contribute to this if needed.  In a quick look at Oriental Trading, we could get 500 assorted Mardi Gras bead necklaces for $84.  If several of us each donated $10 or more, we could
get quite a lot to give out.

Greetings all,

I think that we should definitely participate in the Norman Mardi Gras Parade, but I have mixed feelings about whether or not we should walk with the Medieval Fair crew and here they are:

It might be kind of nice to seperate ourselves from the Medieval Fair and get more publicity for the SCA as a seperate group, but we can only do that if we can get a large enough group of SCAdians to commit to going. Many times, there just are not that many
of us there in attendance, and we don't want to have like 5 people marching by ourselves because that would look pathetic. So, I guess my thoughts are, if lots of us are going to be able to go, we can register or our own, but if only a few of us are going
to be able to go then we should walk with the Medieval Fair crew and just carry SCA banners, signs, and fliers like we have in the past. Either way that we end up going, I think that we should extend an invitation to Skorrgardr and Wiesenfeuer and as well.

What does everyone else think? 

YIS,

Baronessa Caterina
