Celebrate Christmas with Mendoza Ford's Annual Gumbo Cook Off!

Join us on December 9th for a fun-filled day of food, music, professional fireworks, Photos with Santa, a Bubble Bus, Balloon Artist, Train Rides, and community support at Mendoza Ford's Annual Christmas Cookoff. This year, we're proud to be benefiting the students of Vermilion Parish by raffling a brand new 2023 Ford-150!

Our cookoff features some of the best gumbo in the area, cooked up by talented local chefs competing for the top prize. Come and taste the delicious gumbo, enjoy live music performances, and enter to win exciting raffle prizes throughout the day.

All proceeds from the event will go directly to each Vermilion Parish school in proportion to each school's participation in the event. We're proud to be able to give back to our next generation of leaders!

So mark your calendars and bring your appetite! We can't wait to celebrate Christmas with you!
