Grand Marshal Celebration

Harrah’s VooDoo Lounge on March 2, 2023.

Let’s begin with the first Snake Saturday event each year, the annual Grand Marshal Celebration. This year’s event will be at Harrah’s VooDoo Lounge on March 2, 2023. The Grand Marshal of the parade is introduced along with the annual Shamrock Award. The Shamrock Award (“Green Jacket”) is presented to a volunteer or organization who has been part of Snake Saturday for at least five years. The supporting community provides several donations which are distributed via a silent and/or live auction and other fun activities. All these funds are collected and distributed to the various charities and organizations which make up the parade.

Tables are $250 a table for your business or group of friends (10 to a table) or $25 a single ticket. Everyone is welcome to attend the celebration and support the charities and pay honor to the Grand Marshal.
