The purpose of the parade is to give local residents and visitors an opportunity to celebrate Mardi Gras Goodland-style...on the water. We have two goals. The first is to have fun. The second is to raise money to benefit Avow Hospice. Extravagance is NOT required and boats of all sizes and shapes are welcome.

Last Year's Parade raised $24,000 for Avow Hospice.

This year's theme is "Colors".  Pick any idea associated with a Color and decorate your crew and boat to depict it.
