- COVID SAFETY: Although there have been no restrictions related to Covid safety on gatherings for quite some time, we will follow any and all city or state requirements in place at the time of the ball. We certainly welcome any of our guests who desire to do so to wear a mask, and we ask that anyone exhibiting signs of illness be considerate of others and mask up or stay home. While we believe those precautions should help all of us to have a happy and healthy Mardi Gras season, our venue has required that we inform all guests of the potential of contracting diseases such as Covid-19, the flu, etc. from participating in congregate events such as our ball.

From the venue: "There are certain inherent risks associated with participating in congregate activities which cannot be eliminated..." Therefore, by purchasing a ticket and attending this event, all guests and members of the Krewe agree to "knowingly and freely assume all risks related to participation in a congregate activity and understand that attendance at such an activity increases the risks of being exposed to and/or contracting Covid-19" or other diseases such as the flu. All guests also agree to release and indemnify the Historic Carver Theater and all of its representatives from any loss or damage related to participating in the event and waive all rights to bring claims related thereto.
