To honor fallen law enforcement officers, on May 21, 2022, Lafayette City Marshal Reggie Thomas hosted a Police Memorial Fest at the Lafayette Downtown Parc International. The Fest started at 4PM and was celebrated until the end of the National Police Week events in Lafayette, Louisiana. The mission for this event was to send a family of a Louisiana Police Officer, who perished in the line of duty, to Washington D.C. for the annual “Honoring the Fallen” Ceremony. The Police Memorial Fest was a fun filled evening featuring live music by Curley Taylor & Zydeco Trouble, Geno Delafose & French Rockin’ Boogie, and the mixes of DJ RV. The Marshal’s Cooking Team prepared jambalaya for the event.
