Museum News: Northeast Texas Heritage Museum Mardi Gras will be March 23

“Mardi Gras for the Museum” will be held March 23 this year. If you haven’t pre-registered for the Bike Run come to the office at 204 West Marshall or go see Elaine Barnwell at Tommy Lee Insurance agency. The first 50 to pre-register will receive free T-shirts. For those who do not pre-register, registration will be held March 23 from 8:30 until 10 a.m. at Valero Corner Express, 101 North Greer Blvd. Bikers will ride through town and on to the various stops.
If you did not receive an invitation to the Mardi Gras ball, don’t panic. Everyone is invited to attend. Tickets will be sold at a reduced rate until March 15, so call me at 903-855-7571, 903-856-1200 or come by the office to get your name in the pot early. The ball will be held at Princedale Country Club beginning at 6:30 p.m. the evening of the 23rd. Dudley’s Cajun Cafe from Longview will cater the event, and Randy Brannon will provide the music.
This is the only fund-raiser we have all year, so come out and support your local museum.
