Taking a hike is always fun, but it's even more of an adventure when the terrain that you're exploring is as picturesque as the Walter B. Jacobs Memorial Nature Park. The trails are as inviting as the pine-oak-hickory forest in which they lie, and several naturalists are available by appointment to guide you through your trek. The park also offers special programs for students and various school groups, as well as day camps and other special events and attractions.

Artbreak takes place every April and May. Students from Bossier and Caddo Parish take part in several hands-on art projects and also serve as judges for the various pieces that are completed. This festival is a weekend of dance, music, theater, food, fun and even a 5K race.

The Holy Trinity Catholic Church honors the tradition of the Catholic faith and keeps an eye on the future, as celebrations such as weddings, baptisms and ordinations offer hope for the Church in the coming years. However forward looking those are, this church has the distinction of being the oldest church in the area. It is awe-inspiring to stand in its doorway, with the rich stone architecture guarding the altar and tabernacle like a formidable fortress. Still, the color and spectacle of the detailed stained glass windows brings a color and depth to the atmosphere that, like the Salvation that is celebrated here daily, reminds the congregation of God's beauty and serenity.
