Mi-Carême (mid Lent) festival

On Saturday the local school organised the Mi-Carême festival in Catus. Residents from the old peoples' home (EHPAD) were invited along to join in the festive occasion in the village hall. A procession around the village ended the occasion on a beautiful sunny day.

The Mi-Carême is widely celebrated in many parts of France, with the participants often dressed in a variety of festive costumes.
