For over two decades "dem Corkins boys done throw some fais do do yeh"! Since 1982, cousin Eric has brought as many fresh Louisiana crawfish that he can haul over…boiled them mudbugs to perfection, and caused many a big smile as the "true" crawdad connoisseurs flock in to indulge themselves. He'll throw some gulf shrimp in also, just for those that are a bit squeamish. One can also find several types of gumbo, etouffé, red beans & rice with andouille sausage, hot dogs (for the kids), and Key lime pie or bread pudding. Beverages include cold beer, sodas, wine, and bottled water.
Even though food and beverage is a big part of the party, the live music is the other main attraction of this festive annual event. For the last 7 years, the amazing Wayne Toups has been the feature entertainer, each year culminating what is arguably the most exciting festival day of the year in the Wimberley area. Typically, the festival takes place on the last Saturday in April…just check the calendar. |
