Let The Good Times Roll: Seniors Celebrate Mardi Gras
February 22, 2012
Residents at the Century Care Center celebrated Mardi Gras Tuesday in grand style with both a parade and a party.
The parade featured lots of throws, including Mardi Gras beads and other trinkets. Residents in Mardi Gras costumes paraded and rolled through the hallways in their wheelchairs to the delight of other residents watching the parade.
Ruth Steele was named Mardi Gras queen, and John Holsberry was named king.
