Krewe of Little Rascals
The Krewe of Little Rascals is America’s longest
running, most flamboyant children’s Mardi Gras Krewe in Carnival
history. “Today’s Little Rascals are Tomorrow’s
Leaders and Our Hope for the Future”. This is the motto of
the Krewe of Little Rascals, a non-profit organization named after
Hollywood’s most famous kids group. We are a youth oriented
traditional Mardi Gras Ball and Parade, with members ranging in
age from 4 – 19 (younger positions are available in the Court)
We were founded in 1983 and are patterned after the adult carnival
clubs. The Krewe was a vision of a couple who believed that the
Carnival Spirit of the old New Orleans should live and breathe through
our youth, as well as through our adults. The Krewe was built with
the intention of promoting the qualities of leadership and self
esteem in our young members and fellowship among our families. Little
Rascals is comprised of both parent sponsored members and individual/corporate
sponsored members. We believe that children should be children and
ALL children should have the opportunity to achieve their fullest
potential regardless of race, religion or economic background. See
NEWS for meeting information.
