Help Us Help the Bayou Area Habitat for Humanity – February 2010
March 8, 2010
The Rock ‘n’ Roll Mardi Gras Marathon of New Orleans starts at the Morial Convention Center along the Mississippi River and takes runners on a full 26.2 mile marathon through New Orleans’ most historic neighborhoods including the French Quarter, Uptown and Mid City, ending up in beautiful City Park. (check out the course here) In typical Louisiana style, the entire race is a party with dozens of bands playing all along the route as thousands of well-wishers cheer the runners on. At the end of the marathon, runners and the community at large keep the party going with a high-energy concert and celebration at City Park featuring Louisiana’s own Cowboy Mouth. Our region will of course be very well represented by Chris Ledet and his lovely wife Lynn, along with Chris’ ever faithful crew of Nancy Bernard and Jennifer Rodrigue. What a team!
Even better: every step that Team Chris Ledet takes is designed to raise money for Bayou Region Habitat for Humanity, an organization that fulfills the most fundamental desire in us all, to have a place to call home. Sponsorships are available, with every cent raised going directly towards making home ownership a reality for persons in our community.
