To add even more fun to the 2nd Annual Mardi Gras Parade in the Bishop Arts District in Oak Cliff, there will be a 5K run, 1 mile walk, costume contest and festival at 9 AM Saturday, February 6th called DASH FOR THE BEADS! The money raised will benefit the Bishop Arts beautification, LIGHT UP BISHOP ARTS PROJECT. This is an initiative to wrap merchant roof-lines and trees with lights that will shine year-round and make the district shine!
If you are interested in registering for one of these events, go to www.dashforthebeads.org and click on "register" to sign up for the competitive 5k run (timed), the uncompetitive 5k (untimed) or the 1 mile walk. Entry fees range from $15-22.
If you don't plan on running or walking, I hope to see you there cheering everyone on and enjoying the Bishop Arts District Festivities! The Mardi Gras Parade will be held the following day, Sunday, February 7th at 4PM.
I'll see you in the Cliff!
