MGSSWG Run for the Beads

Enjoy the scenic Earl May Boat Basin and Flint River while participating in the "Run for the Beads" event. Dress in your best Mardi Gras costume, as prizes are given not only for performance but also for the best costume. Organized by the all-ladies nonprofit Mardi Gras Society of Southwest Georgia, the event raises funds for local charities through festive community gatherings. Year-round, approved charities receive both financial and in-kind support. Embrace the spirit of Mardi Gras and help make a meaningful contribution to Southwest Georgia charities.
