St. Clare School's Annual Mardi Gras Carnival, February 12-15

February 11, 2015
The much-anticipated annual Mardi Gras carnival will take place on St. Clare Catholic School grounds (821 Prosperity Farms Road in North Palm Beach) beginning on Thursday, February 12 and concluding Sunday, February 15, 2015.  The entire community is invited to experience this fun-filled event!
 
Mardi Gras is St. Clare School's signature event.  This family friendly carnival began in 1991, and has been attended by thousands of people over the years.  The St. Clare campus is brilliantly transformed from green open fields to an amazing array of rides, midway games and vendors.
 
Thursday, February 12 will kick off this year's Mardi Gras with a Food Truck invasion back by popular demand.  Over 15 food truck vendors will provide an array of sensational fare and will fulfill any craving you can imagine. Thursday evening will also be a ride preview night and ride wrist bands will be sold for $25.00 for use only on Thursday night.
 
Several local bands will grace the stage each night. New rides have been added to the festival and live entertainment will provide non-stop fun to this exciting four day event. With all of the new changes coming to Mardi Gras, many of your old favorites will be back as well. The putting competition is always a crowd pleaser, The Knights of Columbus world famous cannoli will be available and the grade level game booths will be jumping and hopping as usual.
 
The money raised at Mardi Gras will assist in funding educational enrichment, technology initiatives, sports programs and countless other programs and endeavors.
