Thank you to everyone who attended our Mardi Gras Party & Fundraiser on January 24, 2015 at Pebble Hill in celebration of 11 years of volunteers. It was the best in every way! The evening was a rousing success thanks to our wonderful sponsors, donors and volunteers. Read more about the evening below, including party pics!
A delicious cajun-inspired meal was served by Capers Inc. Catering. The menu included mini muffaletta, bloody mary oyster shooters, cajun fried catfish and shrimp with remoulade, chopped salad, rice, chicken and sausage gumbo, and jalapeno cheddar corn bread. Yum! Dessert was Kings (cup)Cakes by Maries Cakes. A few lucky guests found a traditional baby in their cupcake and took home a prize. Prizes were also presented for Best Mask (Randle Johnson) and Best Krewe (Blue Bell Creameries).
Entertainment included live music by The Blues Factor Band, a genuine N’awlins Parade featuring the cast (um, krewe) of TOSAC’s Cinderella, a 50/50 Cash Pot, a Raffle Prize of a hot air balloon ride, a Silent Auction, and a Goof Booth compliments of Picture U and Core Performance (view Goof Booth pics here). We look forward to next year!

Playing the washboard
More than 185 revelers turned out for a great evening for a great cause featuring delicious cuisine by JB Crumbs, a Goof Booth by Florina R. Photography and the foot-stomping zydeco sounds of Zydeco Zoo. New Orleans street signs, hundreds of strings of beads, feathers and masks transformed The Uno Hill Barn at Pebble Hill into our own little slice of Mardi Gras right here in Thomasville.
Best Mardi Gras mask winner
Party-goers also participated in a silent auction and raffles, grossing nearly $17,000 just that evening to benefit HOTC volunteer and community service programs.
Thank you to all our sponsors, donors, volunteers and participants who helped to make it such a special night! We’re already looking forward to next year!
