Sunday February 26 was a special day for the noted Steampunk community of Caledon. It was the anniversary of it's foundation, the day being considered "Founder's Day." And they would have an event to celebrate that evening.
Today, February 26th, is Founder's Day--the 17th anniversary of the day Caledon first rezzed in! Join us tonight in the beautiful Dragon Ballroom to celebrate. Wear your Caledon colors, the national tartan, or just plain dress up in something fancy. Music for the Founder's Day Caledon Anniversary Ball begins at 6:30pm SLT
A number of people showed up, including Caledon governor Desmond Shang, nicknamed "Guvnah" or "the Guv."
Kamilah Hauptmann, the one who talked yours truly into signing up onto SL in 2006, was also there, still finding the time to occasionally come by some Caledonian events.
Following the party in the Dragon Ballroom, people went to a secret tunnel leading from the governor's manor to the lair for the "Catgirl Bash." Starting a couple years after the founding, this would be the 15th.
After the regalia and gentility of the Caledon Anniversary Ball, it's time to drop the cravats and release the corsets to prowl down to the Catgirl lair under Victoria City!
Unfortunately, there was a problem with leaky pipes, and flooding. But the catgirls persisted through the wet clothes and wet fur (some more furred than others). Sadly, there would be no fireworks that night (maybe they got damp), but it was still a fun time as this large Steampunk community celebrated it's founding.
