  • Donations accepted for Wetlands preservation organizations

    New this year! Mysti Krewe will collect donations for 2 wetlands organizations.
    In both Oregon and Louisiana wetlands are essential to a healthy ecosystem. Wetlands clean and recharge our water supply, provide critical fish and wildlife habitat, and protect our communities from floods. This year the Mysti Krewe will support wetlands restoration by donating to The Wetlands Conservancy in Oregon and the Barataria-Terrebonne National Estuary Program in Louisiana. You can join us by adding a donation to the cost of your ball ticket. It’s easy and you’ll be supporting this most important environmental need.
