The Lincoln Network Chapter of the American Business Women’s Association (ABWA) is making plans for the Annual Mardi Gras Fundraiser on Tuesday, March 4th. The event will be held at a NEW location – The Towers Event Center – at 70th and A Street, Clocktower Square, in Lincoln. The Mardi Gras Party will include a silent auction, raffle and door prizes, and entertainment by The Sarabande Jazz Band. Appetizers will feature New Orleans traditional cuisine including Hush Puppies, Jambalaya and King Cake. A cash bar will also be available.
Money raised from the Mardi Gras event goes to provide educational scholarships to non-traditional students attending two or four year programs. In 2013 the ABWA Chapter of Lincoln presented over $5,000.00 to three very well-deserving students. Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door, and are available by calling Chellie Williamson at (402) 580-1946.
