The
Louisiana Forest Festival, reorganized in 1980, salutes
the timber industry in our state. The festival
encompasses timber related activities. There
are numerous forestry equipment displays and related
exhibits. Professional lumberjack
sports competitors come from throughout the United
States to participate in the show. The Lumberjack
Challenge T.V. Show on OLN has featured the festival.
There will be 13 lumberjack events to cheer on with
6 different chainsaw events. The festival will have
excellent fun and food throughout the day. Come and
look at the homemade crafts and join in the fun of
contests and prize drawings. There will be children’s
activities and games.
