Crying Eagle Brewery To Host Fundraiser For Ball’s Fried Chick-n

A Southwest Louisiana favorite took more damage during last week's severe storms that rolled through Louisiana on Wednesday. Crying Eagle Brewery is going to host a fundraiser to help them get back up and going again...

In Southwest Louisiana, Balls Fried Chicken is a beloved local restaurant. However, after Hurricane Laura devastated the establishment in 2020, the community has been missing it. The owners of the well-known restaurant on Enterprise Boulevard in Lake Charles have been hard at work rebuilding it, and they were almost done when the storms damaged it again.

Balls Chicken destroyed…AGAIN!! Our faithful employee was at the restaurant when the roof started coming off. We were SO close to opening! All the hard work we put into the restaurant, is now destroyed. Yet another delay for Ball’s Fried Chicken opening. We need prayers and maybe some help this time.

But don't worry, they WILL BE BACK! Crying Eagle Brewery will host a fundraiser to help the local business!

Crying Eagle Brewing in Lake Charles has revealed plans for a special fundraising event in support of another cherished community icon, Ball’s Fried Chick-N. The event is scheduled for May 11th, inviting residents to unite and demonstrate their solidarity once again.

The focal point of the event will be a silent auction hosted by Crying Eagle Brewing, with all proceeds earmarked for the restoration of Ball’s Fried Chick-N. Individuals and businesses keen on contributing auction items are encouraged to email amber@cryingeagle.com. Every donation, no matter how big or small, will play a crucial role in the meaningful restoration efforts.

While additional details will be disclosed in the coming days, attendees can anticipate a day filled with live music, auctions, raffles, delectable food offerings, and more. The event promises a vibrant atmosphere that combines entertainment with a noble cause, appealing to community members eager to show their support.
