The aroma of holiday spices, candy canes, sugar gumdrops, and gingerbread will soon swirl through the air. The Lake Charles/Southwest Louisiana Convention and Visitors Bureau’s annual Gingerbread House Contest is a wonderful way for visitors to feel the community’s Christmas spirit when they see the houses on display at the Welcome Center throughout December.
Entry forms are now available for the Annual Gingerbread House Contest, which will be held at noon on Saturday, Dec. 5, in conjunction with the Lake Charles Christmas Lighting Festival. The awards ceremony, sponsored by the CVB, will be held at the bureau located at 1205 North Lakeshore Drive in Lake Charles. The deadline to register for the contest is Monday, Nov. 16.
