The Chamber of Commerce is now accepting themes for the 94th annual Mardi Gras celebration.  Mardi Gras in Pinckneyville is held on the last Saturday of October.   Submissions for the theme will be accepted until March 4, 2016 at noon.  This allows time for the High School students to create a logo for the event.  The winning submission will win $50 to a Chamber Members Business.

Submissions can be sent to the Chamber at PO BOX 183 Pinckneyville, IL 62274 or emailed chamber.pville@gmail.com.
