Dear Owner,

mardi gras 2
Mardi Gras is HERE!  We are so excited and looking forward to our Mardi Gras Event this weekend.  We have a fun evening planned with Groupe du Jour, Seafood Gumbo, fabulous wines from Argentina and Chile, and ABITA TURBO DOG beer from the keg.  Greg Yoder from Mutual Distributing will be back to pour for you.  Wear your Mardi Gras beads/attire, or dressed as a "normal" human, and enjoy an evening by the pit.  We are asking for a $5 donation for Brunswick Little Theatre.
