Entry fees at both parks are $7 per day per person per park or patrons can purchase a $30 tournament pass allowing entry into all parks for the entire week.
Rain delays or other changes will be announced on smcbaseball.com.
In Morgan City, Central Catholic hamburgers and sno balls will be sold. In Bayou Vista, the fare includes hamburgers cooked by the St. Mary Parish Sheriff’s Office, jambalaya, nachos and Frito pies. T-shirts also will be sold at both locations.
When you’re not playing baseball, we’ve got lots of fun activities for the kids as well as live music during dinner for the adults. There are museums for entertainment and fast food for a quick meal as well.
In short, there’s something for everyone on the Cajun Coast.
While you’re here, don’t forget to share your adventures on social media (we’re on just about all of them @CajunCoast!) and add the hashtag #CajunCoast so we can find you!
