The Mistick Krewe of Okeanos, delivered the Carnival spirit and traditions to the to San Marcos with its 8th annual Mardi Gras Parade on Saturday. Since the parade fell on Feb. 22, George Washington’s birthday, the Krewe selected the parade theme “Okeanos Salutes America’s Heritage” and invited participants to decorate their entry in the spirit of the theme.
The Krewe also used the parade as an occasion to honor residents of San Marcos who have dedicated their personal time and efforts toward making the community a better place by naming them King and Queen of Carnival. This year, Robert Cotner and Linda Pennington were crowned as King and Queen of Okeanos IX and lead the parade on the Krewe’s signature royal float.
