 King's Circle -- What it's all about!

The King's Circle is a group of members (a maximum of 60) from the Krewe of Carrollton who's express purpose is to provide the Krewe with a King for its annual parade and Ball.  This group of men pay a seperate dues that is set by the King Circle Board of Directors.  This dues is used for the following functions: The Annual Seafood Party, The Drawing Party, and the Annual Christmas Formal.  Another use of this dues is given to the Parent club to help defray the expenses of the King. 

The King also provides a party for the King's Circle members 6 weeks after the parade, as a start of the next Mardi Gras Year.  This Group also gets together for addittional Pay-As-You-Go functions throughout the year.  Most of these functions include spouses or guest.  Over time this group has been seen as one of the foundations of the Krewe. 

An offshoot of this group has been started by the wives of the King Circle members.  The Ladies of the Circle have gotten together to get to know each other and to add addittional fun and activities throughout the year.

If you are looking for more interaction with the Krewe, the King's Circle is probably the best place to start. Please see the King's Circle Chairman for information.
