Mike Brooks, an employee of Zendah Grotto, does his best Garth Brooks impression to celebrate his raffle win courtesy of Krewe Director Simon Robinson's retail store Music Avenue.  A great time was had by all -- and although we could have hosted hundreds more, everyone had a great time and we raised nearly $10,000 more for hurricane relief along the Gulf Coast.  Thanks so much to those who attended and/or volunteered from our Krewe.  A special thanks for the killer banners & signs from Director Benny Gomez' company SBC Signworks! Thanks to creation and design by our own 'web god' Ken Donofrio & The Idea Network, you can see more info and photos from the event at kreweskare.org

RAT HAT? How About That? Wow...what great hats - what great creativity - what a killer Entertainment Committee - what a krazy good time!  If you missed the "Mad Hatters in Pair O' Dice" Ball, such a shame because it was a complete and total blast!!  Erika, Aminta, Lynda and the Entertainment Committee outdid themselves - the centerpieces were outstanding and sooo creative, the decorations, the "Feed Your Head" Candy Bar, that red chocolate fountain, the food, the booze, just all of it - outstanding!!!  And those of you who donned your maddest hats - so much fun and really wacky!  Thanks to the "raffle hounds" that brought in an extra $700.00, too!  All in all - another killer Pair O' Dice event!  Congrats to Sheila Ryan from the The Krewe of Samuel Bellamy.  She took first place for her hat full of rats!  And, of course, thanks to all of you who attended - you were mahhhhvelous!!!  Professional photos are available for viewing and purchase at www.robertcrumphotography.com.
