The Cavaliers celebrated the Carnival revelry with a series of fun events.

The Cavaliers and their friends hosted their annual Fat Thursday beer bust at the Rawhide on a cold Thursday, Feb. 3 night. Revelers included Doug, Poncho, Heath, AJ, Mike H. and Mike W., and David.

Annual Thoth parade party
The Cavaliers and a whole lot of their friends celebrated Carnival 2005 at David and Michael's annual Thoth parade party at their Tchoupitoulas Street home on Sunday, Feb. 6. Thanks to Dave D. for all the great photos!

Lords of Leather Bal Masque XXII
The Cavaliers and our friends attended the Lords of Leather Bal Masque XXII on Sunday, Feb. 6. Our member and friend Alan was crowned Lord King XXII in the spectacular climax of the tableau, where he reigned as Neptune, God of the Sea. Thanks to Dave D. for all the great photos! As you'll see from the photos, we clean up pretty nice!

Fat Tuesday
The Cavaliers and their friends were out in force on Mardi Gras in the French Quarter, and two Cavaliers celebrated Mardi Gras in traditional masking style. Our road captain Poncho arrived in his lovely Carnival finery, and Michael W. continued his award-winning tradition of fabulous costumes by dressing as ... you guessed it ... a cavalier!
