Grab you’re purple hat, all the beads you can carry and make your way to Hallowell for the 4pm parade today! Parking will be wild so get here early and car pool.

You don’t want to miss the Mardi Gras Pub Crawl here at “The Little Easy” starting at 4:30pm. One of the greatest celebrations featuring great N’Orleans food and amazing drinks prepared by some of Maine’s finest and most beloved  bartenders. All of this in the company of world class musicians who will make you dance and sing the entire night.

Be certain to buy your 2010 Pub Crawl T-Shirt!

There is also a special production of The Rocky Horror Picture Show at the City Hall Auditorium to benefit Amelia, a young lady battling Leukemia .

Face painting, a silent auction and a costume contest round out the afternoon celebrations.

Don’t be late!
