Mark your calendars for a great event coming up in October of this year. It's called Cookin' And Cruisin' For A Cause and it combines a poker run with a chili cook-off which if you ask us sounds like a great combination!

This event is put on by Bon Ami Calcasieu Riding Club and Give A Wish LLC where they raise money to grant a wish to children of Southwest Louisiana and Southeast Texas with terminal or extenuating medical conditions through Give A Wish.

How awesome is that? So how can you help this great organization and make these kids' wishes come true? Be a part of this great event on Saturday, October 7th, 2023. It is taking place at Wayne's Deli in Carlyss, Louisiana. Here is the schedule of all the events going on that day.
