CAPTAIN’S MESSAGE
As captain of our Krewe, I can feel the excitement building for the new Mardi Gras season, and it fills me with a deep sense of optimism. I believe this year will be something truly special—a chance to honor our traditions while creating new memories with our community. No matter the challenges we’ve faced, Mardi Gras always returns stronger, and I’m proud to lead us into a season that promises joy, unity, and unforgettable moments. With the help from our amazing Krewe members, I am looking forward to us accomplishing our goals.
Krewe of Elders Captain,

ABOUT US
The Krewe of Elders is a Mardi Gras non-profit incorporated organization for people 50 and older located in Shreveport, LA. The Krewe was formed in 1998. The Krewe's function is to help provide a "budget friendly" way to be part of the fun and excitement that Mardi Gras brings to our area.
During the Mardi Gras season we visit nursing homes, children's hospitals, and veterans hospitals. In order to keep our Krewe going we have fund raisers that include cook outs, fish fries, barbecues and dances. We have a Coronation Ball and a Grand Ball. All the members will have an opportunity to ride on the Krewe's floats in the Highland parade.
