The Minden-based Krewe of Akewa revealed their royalty for the new Mardi Gras season over the weekend with a luau at Pine Hills Country Club.

Members from all of the area krewes came out to party for the first coronation of the season and Akewa's first ever 'crowned' king!

The festivities included a working volcano, tons of great food, music, dancing, contests and more! Check out pictures from this fun event courtesy of Shady Oaks Photography!
