Occasionally, because Bedico Creek Preserve is such a popular neighborhood on the northshore of Lake Pontchartrain in New Orleans, Louisiana, we will have newspaper, magazine, and online articles and blogs written about our master-planned community. We feature these articles in our Press Room area. Also, we sometimes create press releases for special news and events that are happening at Bedico Creek Preserve. You can find all of this information, plus make media inquiries all right here in our Press Room.

The Chef Soiree Moves Back To Bogue Falaya Park This Year

This year the Chef Soiree will be this Sunday, June 13, 2021, from 5pm – 9pm. It will be moved back from the Covington Trailhead to Bogue Falaya Park. The Youth Service Bureau, the event’s beneficiary, decided to move the event back to the park to all more social distancing. More space will allow the 50 plus restaurants and purveyors to serve food and beverages.

“We’re excited to be back at the park, which will have a new look, but the same feel,” Chef Soiree organizer Bobbie Calandro said.

Calandro, who has helped organize Chef Soiree for the past 25 years, is excited that the event will take place this year in June instead of its regular time in March. Patrons will now have the opportunity to wear linen to the soiree. A new 2021 Ford Mustang or Escape will be won by drawing at 8:30 pm before the fireworks. The car raffle tickets are $25 each or five tickets for $100.

Last year the Chef Soiree was cancelled due to COVID-19. The event organizers are following the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines. The layout will be a little different this year due to the guidelines. This year there will be walkways, tents and tables for eating and enjoying two stages of continuous music and a festival-style dance area.

Patrons can purchase tickets for $145 per person which includes all the amenities that are offered. The two stages will host live music by The Dominoes, Sweet Crude, Deja Vu and Nashville artist Jake Gunter.

This year mark’s the Youth Service Bureau’s 40th anniversary. The Youth Service Bureau is a St. Tammany organization that helps youth and their families reach their full potential. The service does this through programs for advocacy, counseling, education and intervention.

“This is their 40th year and they are doing something right,” said Calandro.
