Krewe of Gambrinus Den Party, January 12 - Galveston

A den party is basically an opportunity for krewe members to preview their Mardi Gras parade floats. For the Krewe of Gambrinus it is another reason to party!! With food, drinks and lively music krewe members got a peak at what their ‘competition’ has planned for the parade.

The Krewe of Gambrinus will have 14 floats in their parade this year along with 14 marching bands…now that is a parade. Krewe members participate in a friendly competition regarding the float themes and decorations. From what I could see there was lots of competition, lots of imagination and lots of fun.

Listen to Talk of the Bay as George Black, Capt. Of the Krewe of Gambrinus tells us the status of the floats; Mayor Lyda Ann Thomas kicks off the den party; John Stallman tells us what it’s like to be king and Linda Elliott explains the float decorating competition.

Laissez les bon temps rouler!! Check out the pics!
