The Ouachita Parish Chapter of the University of Louisiana at Monroe Alumni Association
will host its annual Shrimp Boil from 3-5 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 25, in the alumni area
of the Grove.
The event leads up to the ULM vs. Texas State matchup in Malone Stadium at 6 p.m.
The event has become popular within the community. Along with shrimp, the menu includes
potatoes, corn, and beverages. The cost to attend is $20 in advance and $25 at the
door.
Nancy Davis of ULM’s Alumni Affairs said, “This will be my 25th year to organize the
shrimp boil and it is still one of my favorite events. Alumni and members of the community
regularly approach me asking when we are having the shrimp boil this year. Everyone
asking shows how much fun combining the Grove atmosphere with music, our great alumni
and friends, and our delicious shrimp is for Ouachita Parish.”
The annual event also allows a group of self-appointed shrimp boilers to join together
and socialize the Friday before.
