Kiwanis Crawfish Boil

On Saturday, 4/28, at the Alexandria Kiwanis Camp in Tioga, hundreds of people gathered on a beautiful day to consume nearly 3000 lbs. of boiled crawfish.  This is our club's annual fundraiser to support programs for children.  Five lucky winners went home with prizes ranging from $500 to $10,000.

"Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world, one child, one community at a time."

The crawfish were great, spicy and plentiful, washed down with a cold beverage.  The cameraderie was even better!  Music was provided by the Garey Cathey Band.

Easter at Sid and John's

We had a wonderful Easter afternoon with our dear friends, Sid and John.  It was a wonderful gathering of their family and friends with great food.  The little children enjoyed an Easter egg hunt, and all enjoyed the pinata (which was quite hearty).  It was a very special gathering and a reason we love living in Louisiana!
