Super Gumbo Cookoffs, crayfish pies, jambalaya, fried catfish and shrimp, red beans and rice, crayfish etufy, bread pudding with whiskey sauce.

Bob Caswell, a transplant lawyer in Louisiana who was on the Civic Center board of directors, proposed a Gumbo cooking contest as a fundraising activity and the festival was born. Caswell passed away in 2019 and the festival is dedicated to his memory.

All proceeds from the festival will be donated to the Lake Hills Community Center, a non-profit charitable organization.
