April 18th, 2011, Tammany Together graciously pulled together 5 Mayors of St Tammany, including Louis Fitzmorris of Abita Springs who discusses the damage to the Riverside Park from hurricane Katrina and hence the wonderful donations from Abita Beer and Abita Lumber to renovate the Gazebo and raised walkway over the river.
I have ridden my bicycle through the park many times; stood overlooking the river, trying to spot a snake… I have had lunch under the gazebo with a lady as bright as the sun’s rays! My finger was slammed in the door, of the green car, by one of my sisters, in 1975 I think. We were filling up empty plastic milk jugs of Abita Springs water, for my Mama who lived in New Orleans. Filling up from the free well in downtown Abita. Wow that hurt!, and was a pretty good long time ago! 🙂 There is good water in Abita Springs, and hence… Now good beer too! LOL!
Thank You
Marc
