The event is being organized to help offset medical expenses as Boudreaux continues his recovery from traumatic brain injuries sustained in a recent incident.

Doors will open at 11:00 a.m., with a full day of activities planned to raise funds and show support. Guests can enjoy jambalaya plate lunches for $10 beginning at 11:00 a.m. until sold out, along with a bake sale featuring homemade treats.

Throughout the day, attendees can participate in a silent auction running from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., a live auction beginning at 5:00 p.m., split-the-pot drawings, and additional games.

Adding to the day's festivities, Ryan Foret and Foret Tradition will take the stage at 1:00 p.m. to provide live entertainment. Attendees can expect a setlist filled with classic Louisiana dancehall staples, which include Louisiana Swamp Pop and oldies.

Those unable to attend can still help by making a monetary contribution at Merchants & Farmers Bank under the account name "Malcolm Boudreaux Benefit." The event serves as another reminder that when someone in Southwest Louisiana needs help, the community answers the call.
