Folks in DeQuincy made the decision that the “show must go on” after City of DeQuincy posted to their social media page on Friday, Oct. 30, that the 5th Annual Fall Fest was cancelled due to inclement weather.

DeQuincy News wishes to say “hats off to those organizations, businesses and individuals who in spite of the cancellation of Fall Fest didn’t let the threat of rain deter the great time that was had Saturday, October 31, at the DeQuincy Walking Path and all over town.

It’s Louisiana! Never trust the weather man. We at the News have observed that kids have more fun jumping in water puddles than just about anything else.

Hundreds of trick-or-treaters visited the walking path to be given goodies by those who brought their umbrellas, raincoats and showed up and out.
