ERATH — The town of Erath is known for its Fourth of July Celebration and the late Cajun musician D.L. Menard. Now, Darryl Rabassa wants to put Erath on the map for something else.
Rabassa, who lives south of Erath, approached Mayor Taylor Mencacci, and the Erath aldermen seeking permission to use the Erath City Park to conduct a cornhole tournament on July 31.
“We want this to be big and make Erath known for its cornhole tournament,” Rabassa told the aldermen. “It is expected to bring a lot of revenue into the town.”
