Local school gears up for Mardi Gras celebration

By: Nikki Henderson

Updated: February 11, 2013

St. Joseph's annual Krewe of Carpenter Parade will roll out tomorrow.

The festivities will kick off 8 a.m. Tuesday morning in the St. Joseph School Parking Lot on 1210 Anniston Ave.

Kindergarteners will lead their homemade floats and wagons around the parking lot throwing beads and other special goodies.

The students will also be accompanied by other royalty from the Krewe of Gemini and Krewe of Centaur as well as clergy from around the Diocese of Shreveport.

The Krewe of Carpenter was formed and named after the school's patron, Saint Joseph, who was a carpenter.
