🎭 Norman Mardi Gras Parade Thanks YOU! 🎭

What a night! Our Summer Fundraiser on August 3rd at Midway Deli & The Backyard at Midway was full of music, laughter, and a whole lot of Mardi Gras spirit. 💜💚💛

Enjoy these snapshots of the crowd, the band, and the best little deli in Norman! Big thanks to TZ Wright, Bob French, Gregg Standridge, and Roy Dickinson—plus the amazing surprise guest Cora Gutel, who jumped in for a song! 🎤

We’re so grateful to Midway Deli and The Backyard for always showing up for local art, live music, and our parade. If you haven’t yet—treat yourself to award-winning gumbo on Mondays 🥣, stop in for lunch or dinner any day, and check out their live shows in the backyard !

🍲 And don’t wander too far—we’ll be back in the fall with our Gumbo Cook-Off! We’re still cooking up the details, but it’s going to be delicious.

Laissez les bons temps rouler! 🎺🎶

💃✨ Best Movers & Shakers – Jazzercise (Moore)! ✨💃

Let’s hear it for Moore Jazzercise Center—our Best Movers & Shakers at the Norman Mardi Gras Parade: Pollinator Palooza! 🎉🎶

These fabulous dancers brought the heat and had the crowd buzzing with their unstoppable energy and killer moves! With synchronized routines, big smiles, and all the Mardi Gras flair, they turned the parade route into a full-on dance party. 🪩🔥

Who says workouts have to be boring? Jazzercise proves that fitness can be fierce, fun, and full of rhythm. Thanks for showing us how to shake it in true parade style!

🌟🐾🎭 Best Doggie Gras Goes to A Mirage Dance Company! 🎭🐾🌟

A huge congratulations to Mirage Dance Company for winning Best Doggie Gras at this year’s Norman Mardi Gras Parade: Pollinator Palooza! 🐝💃🐶

Their performance was absolutely buzzing with energy and creativity—from dazzling Middle Eastern dance to graceful hula and even a touch of fire! Their pollinator-themed flair lit up the streets and brought so much joy to the parade.

Founded in 2003, Mirage Dance Company has been delighting audiences across the country at festivals, concerts, and celebrations of all kinds. Their passion for dance and dedication to blending tradition with innovation truly made them a standout in this year’s parade.

Thank you, Mirage, for bringing the magic—and the wagging tails—to Pollinator Palooza! 💜💚💛
