Annual crawfish boil set for Saturday

The 17th Annual Ed Peveto Crawfish Boil is set for this Saturday at Jewel Cormier Park in Orangefield.

The yearly event raises money for two athletic scholarships given to both a boy and girl that not only exhibits great athletic ability, but are also academically worthy. This year Olivia Wagner and Zack Peevey each received a $6,000 scholarship funded by the yearly event. 

Starting at 1 p.m., hundreds of pounds of boiled crawfish, potatoes, and corn will be available at an all you can eat feast for a donation.

The highlight of the day is the auction of sports memorabilia and equipment from across the country. Even if you don’t have much money, you could still walk away with a great prize in the Cajun auction. The auction starts at 3 p.m.
