When longtime Snowmass Village locals Scott Arthur and Nell Strijbos-Arthur found out that they were this year’s Mardi Gras king and queen, it took a moment for the news to sink in.
“I laughed I said, ‘There’s no way! We’re all in the house,’” Nell said. “That’s really sweet, it’s a great honor, however, I don’t know that we’re going out.”
But, hey, if the crown fits …
“We were really honored,” Scott said.
Scott and Nell join a long list of Snowmass royalty, the likes of which include longtime town clerk Rhonda Coxon (queen in 2009), former Mayor Markey Butler (queen in 2013) and the town’s first housing director Joe Coffey (king in 2016).
