Erath 4th of July

After a fun day at the Gueydan Duck Festival, our Erath’s Miss 4th of July Queen, Kathryn Touchet, headed to Tangipahoa Parish Saturday evening for the Tangipahoa Parish Fair Ball honoring Queen Mackynzie Mannino.

Kathryn was honored to be among the visiting royalty presented that evening and was so thankful for the invitation to share in Mackynzie’s special night.

It was a wonderful evening filled with great food, music, dancing, and even better company! Thank you to our friends in Tangipahoa Parish for the warm hospitality.

📢 🌹 🎉 JUST ANNOUNCED!

I am SO excited to officially unveil our 2027 Rose Parade float: "Bienvenue en Louisiana" - "Welcome to Louisiana"!

This year's Rose Parade theme is 'Welcome', and I don't know any place in the world more welcoming than Louisiana. I always say that the thing that makes Louisiana such a special place is you, the people. Visitors to Louisiana leave here with friends to last a lifetime, and it's all thanks to your generosity and welcoming spirit.

Louisiana will once again be providing the mid-parade entertainment, and I am so proud to announce that this year's performer will be Robin Barnes, the Songbird of New Orleans! We are so excited to travel to Pasadena and share the traditions, culture, and spirit of Louisiana with a worldwide audience.

What a wonderful weekend celebrating our neighbors at the Delcambre Shrimp Festival! 🦐

We enjoyed a little bit of everything this weekend, from plenty of delicious shrimp and great live music to all the fun of the festival!

On Saturday, Kathryn and Rylann spent the day participating in the Queen’s Day events, including a tour of the shrimp processing facility where they had the opportunity to learn more about the shrimp industry and the traditions that make Delcambre so special.

This morning, we were blessed to attend the beautiful Fisherman’s Mass, followed by one of our favorite traditions, the Blessing of the Fleet. A very special thank you to Shane and Marty LeBlanc for inviting us aboard the Beachmaster for the blessing. We are so grateful for your hospitality and for allowing us to experience such a meaningful tradition from the water! ⚓️

Congratulations to the Delcambre Shrimp Festival on another fantastic festival and a wonderful weekend! We always love supporting our neighbors and celebrating the traditions that make our communities so special. 🧡
