Get a taste of what life was like in Louisiana before the industrial revolution when you visit the Rural Life Museum and Windrush Gardens. The museum's credo is to commemorate and preserve history and educate future generations about not only the advances that have occurred up to this point, but the ones we will likely encounter in the future. Through various classes, field trips, and special exhibits, the museum offers several opportunities to dig deeper into various aspects of everything that came before.
If you're more than a little bit country and you love the music, attitude and lifestyle, then consider the Bayou Country Superfest a dream come true for you. It is held at LSU's Tiger Stadium, and the party begins with the big tailgate confab outside but the real fun is inside, as it is the largest country fan festival of its kind. Some of country music's biggest names meet fans, sign autographs, and eventually do what they do best-perform! The last big Superfest drew 87,000 fans, and this year promises to be even bigger! See you there!
The USS Kidd and Veteran's Memorial is a standing tribute to the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice during two eras of our nation's military conflicts.

The names of the fallen Americans are etched on to a granite wall, and they will forever be remembered as our heroes who tirelessly fought and never gave up. This "Pirate of the Pacific" is located in downtown Baton Rouge, and is a constant reminder of the outstanding bravery of our unparalleled service men and women.
