Lubbock Meals On Wheels 17th Annual Mardi Gras Party Is March 1st
We all love a good Mardi Gras party. But going all the way to New Orleans, or anywhere else that really celebrates it right, is expensive. What if I told you there's a better way to Mardi Gras?
For 16 years now Lubbock Meals On Wheels has been hosting a Mardi Gras party and fundraiser. This year it will be on Tuesday March 1st, which is actually Fat Tuesday, from 5:30-9:00 at the Civic Center. There is so much fun planned I'll just share their press release with you so you can get all the info you need.
"Lubbock Meals on Wheels is presenting the 17th annual Mardi Gras Celebration. The event will take place on Tuesday, March 1, 2016 from 5:30 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. at the Lubbock Memorial Civic Center Exhibit Hall.
