Ponchatoula Pulse, June 18th

This week in Ponchatoula

Last week in Ponchatoula, we danced, painted, and sipped our way through summer. The Strawberry Queen Pageant brought the sparkle, kids kicked off summer camp in full creative force, and folks gathered for bingo, paint parties, and late-night laughs. From Zumba to story time, and skates to snoballs, the ‘Toula was buzzin’ with good vibes.

This week? Even more to love. We’ve got car shows, craft swaps, yoga, wine tasting, and a brand-new lineup of art camps for the kiddos. Whether you're building birdhouses, swapping supplies, or just soaking up a sound bath (because yes, that’s a thing again), there’s a little something waiting for everyone.
