Ah, one could salivate just thinking about it.

It’s warm.The sun is out. Your body is working hard.


You’re thirsty. Water works fine, sure. So does Gatorade or any other beverage of choice.

But lemonade? That just hits the spot – every, single time.

Community members are encouraged to quench their third on May 5 by supporting local children during Lemonade Day.


During that day, children will be encouraged to learn about business by opening stands – part of a free, statewide educational initiative designed to teach people entrepreneurial skills.

The program is for all children ages 4-18 and more than 17,000 kids take part annually.

Locally, lemons will be squeezed with events set for both Houma and Thibodaux.


The Houma event will be from 9 a.m. – noon at the Houma Airbase Pavilion – coinciding with Children’s Water Safety Awareness Family Fun Day.

In Thibodaux, stands will be set up at the Thibodaux Fireman’s Fairgrounds from 8:30 a.m. – 11 a.m. as part of the fair’s 5K race. 

At each location, children can enter for awards and prizes will be given to winners. 


Local Lemonade Day events are sponsored by Synergy Bank, Raising Canes, Rouses Markets, Terrebonne Parish Library, Children’s Water Safety Awareness and the Thibodaux Fireman’s Fair.
