            And as always, April rounds up with the big hoopla.  This year’s annual Mississippi Gulf Coast Coliseum Crawfish and Music Festival is two weekends in a row filled with non-stop entertainment.  The festival showcases local bands and musicians as well as local artists and unique vendors where you can find one of a kind items.  There will be daily door prizes and give aways and carnival rides.  Along with several different food vendors, there will be tons of crawfish.  The second weekend offers up a crawfish cooking contest where the winner will be awarded a cash prize.  There is a low entrance fee for all this excitement, but the fee is well worth the good time to be had by all.
