The Krewe of Little Rascals, an all-children s float parade that has rolled in Metairie since 1983, will not parade in 2024 after its co-founder, Jack Spittler Sr., died in Texas.
Under new race directors Mike Kishimoto and Abbey Ehlers, the plan was to bring the Strawberry Shortcut back to Strawberry Days weekend and Father’s Day Sunday which they did for the 45th running.
