🐊 KNGT 🐊 | Lake Charles, LA —  I gotta tell y’all about something pretty dang special that just popped up right here in our backyard.

There’s a brand new spot in Sulphur called Louisiana Red Oak Event Venue, and man… this place is the real deal. I’m not just saying that either. You pull up and it hits you right away. Clean, classy, and just flat out beautiful.

This whole thing is a vision from the Leach Family of Sulphur, and you can tell they didn’t cut corners. A lot of thoughtful planning went into the design of this Venue and you can see it in the details.

Although it’s only been open a few months, folks are already booking weddings and events there. Everyone I've spoken with has said the same thing...WOW, this place is amazing. Like walk in and just stand there for a second kind of blown away.

Now here’s what really got me fired up.

They’re kicking off a music series, and that right there is where I come in saying… yeah, we gotta go check this out.

And I gotta say, one of my favorite parts… it’s right here in Sulphur. I mean, I can basically hop in the truck and be there in 10 minutes. Its about time we get something good on the westside of Calcasieu Parish.

If you wanna find it, it’s at 1921 West US-90 in Sulphur. Easy to get to, easy to enjoy.

Go check them out on Facebook, take a look at the pictures, and then come see it for yourself. I’ll see y’all out there this Saturday Night.
