Our great friends at Missouri Eagle have lined up some amazing bus sponsors for this year’s event! New color routes have been established and busses in route will be matching. That’s right, we’re painting busses to help attendees identify which bus will be on which route!

Don't let today's weather detour you from enjoying the one and only Lake of the Ozarks Mardi Gras Pub Crawl. Enjoy your snow day and pack your bags to head to the Lake of the Ozarks for a fun-filled day and night with friends. The forecast is showing mostly sunny and 41 degrees on Saturday. MoDot and our great cities will ensure the roads are clear and ready for the busses to start at 4 pm on Saturday. Don't forget to pick up your wrist bands and your t-shirts, the t-shirts won't last long. We can't wait to see everyone on Saturday! Let's Crawl Lake of the Ozarks!!!!
