The Scott Business Association is asking all businesses and residents to decorate The City of Scott for Mardi Gras.
The SBA Board of Directors announced in December that its annual Mardi Gras Ball and Parade would be canceled due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
As an alternative means of celebrating, the association is asking the community to decorate homes and businesses in the spirit of Mardi Gras.
Prizes will be given to the best decorated business and best decorated residence in the city limits of Scott. All are welcome to participate regardless of being a member of SBA or not.
