Like most Lake Charles REALTORS, I am very familiar with all of Calcasieu Parish and most of the surrounding parishes of Cameron, Jeff Davis, and Beauregard. As such, I can honestly tell those moving to the Lake Charles area that Southwest Louisiana offers a multitude of locations and housing styles. When I'm asked where I live, I proudly answer, "Sulphur, LA!" Today, I'm proud to remind locals and visitors to check out the Sulphur Heritage Festival. Admission is free and the hours are as follows: 5-10 p.m. May 28 10 a.m.-10 p.m. May 29 For more information, call 527-0357 or 527-4500.
