Back by popular demand! Louisiana’s Cajun Bayou’s 2023 Oyster Shell Ornament Contest is here! Help the local visitor’s center decorate their tree!

Community members can decorate a real oyster shell ornament for the visitor center’s Christmas tree! On Wednesday, December 20, 2023, three lucky winners will be chosen to receive a special prize.


Here’s how it works:

  • Be creative when deciding on your Christmas or Cajun themed ornament.
  • Use any materials you like when decorating your shell.
