Wayne Burgess has been invited by the organizer of this years Mardi Gras parade to put together a group of homeless, previously homeless, and advocates who are interested in getting out and getting involved in this community activity. The parade is Sunday, March 6th. If you are interested then send him an e-mail at w.burgess@yahoo.com. Wayne is also seeking help with costume supplies – beads, etc. “This is a good opportunity to build inclusive community.” The theme for this years parade is “footloose, fancy and free.” (The costumes will be like everyone else’s – not a homeless theme)
