Aquatic Education Day

TBLA volunteers spent three days with local children from Sabine Parish hosting a 5th grade fishing clinic. It was COLD and WINDY for sure, but they helped the kids catch fish and turtles. One little girl caught her first fish ever.

We are not too sure if the kids or volunteers had more of a good time!

Keeping Sabine Parish Clean

Tired of seeing litter on our beautiful roads? The Sabine Parish Police Jury has developed an Adopt-A-Road Program for parish roads. Groups or individuals can adopt a road by submitting an application to the Sabine Parish Police Jury. Participants will receive a sign with their name along the adopted road, recognizing their commitment to keeping Sabine Parish clean!

Beautifying the Toledo Bend Entrance

Toledo Bend Lake Association provided a $20,000 grant to the Sabine Tourist Commission for gateway signage and landscaping at the LA Hwy 6 and Hwy 191 intersection. This project was completed through a collaboration between TBLA, the Sabine Tourist Commission, SRA of Louisiana, Sabine Parish Detention Center volunteers, and other community volunteers. With thousands of visitors each year, this beautification effort created a welcoming first impression and helped set the stage for Toledo Bend’s 50-year celebration in 2019.
