T

he Krewe of Nereids hosted 
their annual Moonpie Party on 
January 20 at the Sandshaker 
Lounge in Pensacola Beach. 

This all-woman Mardi Gras krewe was 
founded in Pensacola Beach in 1991.

Many attendees of the Moonpie Party 

were decked out in their top hats and 
tuxedo tails adorned with glittering sequins 
and rhinestone pins. For this particular 
celebration, participants were encouraged 
to wear Mardi Gras colors and a zany hat. 
Although there was no dress code for the 
informal event, a hat helped defl ect the 
moon pies being thrown into the crowd 
over the evening. The annual event was 
free and open to the public and guests had 
fun dancing to the music of Boogie, Inc. all 
night long.
