Feasting Down on the Bayou

“Bayou Boil”, the annual fundraiser for Armand Bayou Nature Center, will be an evening of fun, fundraising and feasting on catfish dinners with all the trimmings from Sudie’s Catfish and Seafood House. Brad Bailey, owner of Sudie’s, (left) recently gave an advance tasting to event co-chairmen Christi Cheramie and John Collins (right).

Also on the menu for the event will be boiled crawfish from Seabrook Beach Club and hot wings from Hooters-Seabrook.

The event will be held at 6 p.m., May 7, at the nature center grounds, 8500 Bay Area Blvd. Music will be played by the popular local duo of Mack and Bryan. Judges Louie Ditta and Steve Phelps will lead a live auction with help from honorary chairman Jim Reinhartsen, president of Bay Area Houston Economic Partnership.

A silent auction with a wide variety of items to bid on will also be held. All proceeds will benefit operations at the 2,500-acre Armand Bayou Nature Center wildlife refuge. The center’s mission is environmental education and preservation.

Tickets for the event are $75 with tables of 8 and 10 available. For more information, call Catherine Miller at 281-474-2551.
