Members of Project Graduation are at it again and this time with delicious food items for the public to purchase.

According to Hilton Bacon, president of the 2014 Project Graduation, the purpose is to raise money throughout the year and to give the graduating class the opportunity to go out with a “bang” by giving them a party and keeping them safe and off the streets on graduation night.

They will kick off their events with a Senior Night. Everyone is welcome to celebrate the 2014 upcoming graduating class with warm bowls of gumbo. There is dine in and carry out available.

Diners can go to the Bridge City Middle School on Nov. 1 from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. They will be served chicken and sausage gumbo with rice, crackers, a dessert and iced tea. For those who can’t stay, there is also carry-out. There are boxed dinners for sale too. Gumbo will also be sold by the pint or quart.
