Our Kickoff Meeting was GREAT! Sixty members and guests attended. We announced our new season and ball theme - Marvelous Marionettes - A Celebration of the 50's. We enjoyed Hunter's presentation on the history of our group.
Next up is a Mingle at Unique Boutique on Thursday, May 8. Come from 5-7pm to socialize and shop for a special Mother's Day (or other) item. We're the VIPs that night. Details on the Events page.

The Krewe of Marionettes was founded in January, 1957. We are an all-female Krewe and among the oldest Krewes in Pensacola. We have social activities throughout the year and a formal ball. We participate in many Mardi Gras activities including Twelfth Night, KOB Pin & Bead Festival, Fat Tuesday, All Krewe Ball and the Pensacola Grand Mardi Gras Parade. Our charity is Honor HER Foundation. Members are welcome to participate in as many (or as few) activities as they want.
