The Downtown Demonstration Days event that was scheduled to run this weekend has been postponed.


“Public participation is paramount to the success of our Downtown Demonstration Days project. Unfortunately with outdoor events, the weather does not always cooperate. Out of respect for everyone’s time and efforts and to ensure the highest level of public participation which is crucial to this project, we have made the tough decision to postpone the Downtown Demonstration  Days event until December 13 and 14 (Friday and Saturday),” reads a statement by the Terrebonne Parish Consolidated Government. “While we know that this will be an inconvenience to some, we felt that it was more courteous to let everyone know sooner than later – especially for the pop up shops before they get too far along with the loading and transfer of inventory. The new dates are not in conflict with scheduled events downtown, football games and will hopefully stand a chance of better weather. This postponement will apply to the Main Street reconfiguration, pop up shops, public art installations, pocket parks, farmer’s market and the associated road closures. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause. It was not an easy decision to make, but we feel that it was the right one “

The Kiwanis Howl-O-Ween Dog Parade and Festival is still scheduled to run this Saturday from 9 a.m. until 12 p.m. at the Courthouse Square.
