The 2016 Louisiana Shrimp and Petroleum Festival queen, Jeanne Marie Hidalgo, visited Holy Cross Elementary School, speaking to Maggie Bagwell’s third-grade class. Hidalgo, a former student of Holy Cross Elementary, told the children of her travels to other festivals around the state and her experiences as queen of the oldest harvest festival in the state. She played a slide show for the students of pictures taken during the festival weekend last year, when she was chosen queen. She also invited all of the students to come to the festival on Labor Day weekend.
