DeSoto, it is that time of year again as the DeSoto Park and Recreation is hosting its annual Crawfish Festival.
The vibrant aroma of freshly boiled crawfish and the lively sounds of zydeco music will fill the air at Grimes Park on Saturday, June 1st.

Mounds of crimson crustaceans piled high, their spicy aroma enticing visitors from all around the city.

Alongside the crawfish, there will be golden ears of corn on the cob.
