We have made a blog so everyone can keep up with what our queens have been doing since they were crowned. Victoria and Cherish have been very busy since being crowned in November. They are doing a wonderful job traveling through Louisiana letting everyone know about our tradition we want to keep alive and promoting the festival. Check out where they have been so far and continue to check back for updates. Their site is http://festivalofthebonfiresqueens.blogspot.com

Our Children’s Pageant will be held on Saturday, December 12th under the purple and gold tent at the festival site. There are no residency requirements. Categories range from 6 months to 13 years.
