The Citizens for a Better Arcadia recently celebrated their third annual “Krewe of Arcadia” Mardi Gras Ball, and what a night it was! The event, held at The Arcadia Event Center, brought together community members for an unforgettable evening of music, food, and festivities.

The dynamic duo of DJbigdaddy and 2LEGIT kept the party going with an incredible selection of tunes, ranging from current hits to beloved classics. Attendees danced the night away, enjoying the lively atmosphere and vibrant energy.

Dazzling Parties & Events transformed the venue with stunning decorations, setting the stage for an enchanting evening. From elegant centerpieces to festive Mardi Gras accents, every detail contributed to the magical ambiance of the event.

The culinary delights were a highlight of the evening, thanks to the talents of Mr. and Mrs. Randy Wright’s Catering and Family Affair Catering. Guests indulged in a delectable array of dishes. The exquisite food offerings were complemented by top-tier drink options, including wine and beer stations, as well as an open bar for cocktails.

The Mardi Gras Ball also featured a silent auction, with an array of coveted items up for bid. The silent auction was sponsored by Mrs. Deanna Curtis, with proceeds benefiting CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates). Thanks to the generosity of attendees, CASA raised an impressive $4500 to support their vital work in the community.

Overall, the “Krewe of Arcadia” Mardi Gras Ball was a resounding success, bringing together friends, neighbors, and community members for a night of celebration and camaraderie. The Citizens for a Better Arcadia would like to extend their heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to making the event a night to remember.
