Thank you, foot soldiers, for your valuable volunteer service for our 2023 parade. We couldn’t do it without you! As a thank-you we’re offering foot soldiers a special discount if you want to upgrade to full membership so you can financially support our year-round activities, hand out throws and choose your own costume for 2024. The discount expires after Mardi Gras 2023!  To join as a full member, fill out the application here, then on the payment page, add your membership to your shopping cart, then enter FOOTSOLDIER in the coupon code box when you check out.

Your discount is $25 off, a 20% discount. After Mardi Gras, you’ll still have access through the website menus to our regular membership prices, which increase on Joan’s Feast Day May 30 and All Saints Day Nov. 1. 

If you prefer to remain as a free foot soldier, that’s cool. We still need you and love you, and you can still come to any of our events.  You can also re-enlist as a foot soldier here.
