Lady of the Sea General Hospital will hold its Annual Safety Circus on Saturday, May 4, 2019, at the Cut Off Youth Center from 9am - Noon. Admission is FREE, and it includes balloon art, face painting, hot dog and drink, safety stations, games, prizes, and more!

The Safety Circus is usually held each year in early May, and admission is FREE. Some of the presenting partners in the past have been the Lafourche Parish Sheriff's Office presenting RAD Kids and Water Safety, the Les Artists du Bayou, the Kid Care ID program, Bayou Council on Alcoholism and ADAC with information on the dangers of Drugs and Alcohol, the LACHIP program, the Girl Scouts, Kids Trash Patrol, Lafourche Parish School Bus division.
