Children’s Water Safety Awareness hosts its 2nd Annual Pastalaya on the Bayou Cook-Off from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 27, 2018, at the Houma Courthouse Square. Food will be served from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Come enjoy all-you-can-eat pastalaya, live music, craft vendors, carnival-style games for kids, and more. Admission is $10 for adults, $5 for kids 13 and under, and free for kids 5 and under. Individuals can also sign up their child for free swimming and CPR lessons and/or the Life Jacket 4 Life program.

To enter the pastalaya contest, register your team of no more than four by October 15, 2018. The registration fee before the cut-off date is $125 per team and $175 per team after the cut-off date. Each team must cook enough food to serve 50 people. All entries must be made with pasta; no rice is allowed. There will be awards for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, as well as people’s choice.

Children’s Water Safety Awareness is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Houma, LA that promotes water safety to all in the community. Directly representing four families from this area that have lost a loved one to a drowning incident, they have sponsored free swimming lessons to over 100 children in the Houma/Thibodaux area, as well as hosted free CPR lessons for over 50 parents and family members. Earlier in 2018, the Life Jacket 4 Life program was launched where parents can purchase a discounted life jacket and as their child outgrows it, they can swap it out for the next size at no additional cost. If you or your company would like to get involved or would like to donate, call Joey Vining at 985-860-6625 or e-mail cwsahouma@gmail.com.
