Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler!

ByJ.S.

It’s Mardi Gras day (aka Fat Tuesday) and our 7th annual NOLA Pyrate Week gathering is fast approaching!

Today we proudly represent the New Orleans Krewe of Pirates as the parades wrap up (and city workers clean up) for another season. Enjoy the day and prepare yourselves for the adventures ahead! We have plans to traverse the “Pyratical Triangle” – City of New Orleans, Town of Jean Lafitte, Town of Houma – and hope to raise funds and awareness for Villalobos Rescue Center, Barataria Terreboonne National Estuary Program & Keep Terrebonne Beautiful – as well as promoting all our Pyrate Approved™ locations, sharing Pyrate History and making new mates from across the seas!
