Join us for an exciting weekend in Bastrop, Texas, as we kick off two fantastic events on January 31 and February 1, 2026. First, immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of the Bastrop Mardi Gras Gumbo Cook-Off, where families can enjoy bold Cajun flavors, live music, and community fun. Sample a variety of gumbos crafted by talented cooks—from home kitchens to professional chefs—while voting for your favorites to help crown the champions. Your participation supports local Juneteenth scholarships and events.
Simultaneously, golf enthusiasts can take part in the 2026 Survival Scramble at ColoVista Country Club. This two-person scramble will provide a competitive yet friendly atmosphere with tee-offs starting at 9 a.m. each day. After the first round, join us for a Business Meeting and Cajun shrimp boil at the Mansion, where all proceeds benefit local junior golf. Players can enjoy optional side games, prizes, and more.
Whether you're tasting delicious gumbo or hitting the greens, be part of this community celebration! Don’t forget to secure your spot early for the cook-off and golf scramble. Lodging options are available, including cozy cabins on the course. Come for the food, stay for the fun!
