In celebration of our veterans, this year American Legion Post 69 is hosting Lafayette’s inaugural “HONORFEST”, to be held on Sunday November 16th at American Legion Post 69, 1501 Surrey Street in Lafayette.

There will be food, bands and veteran festivities, including BBQ, jambalaya, kids activities, letter writing tent, raffle, auction and music by Dirt Road and Creole Soul and a special attempt to break a Guinness World Record during the festival!

The American Legion Post is trying to break the record for the largest “High-Intensity Interval Training” class!!

To register for the attempt to break the record, please visit the Honorfest 2014 registration site. (A minimum of 250 people are needed to complete the 5 minute routine). There will also be an on-site registration.

The first 350 people to register and complete the 5 minute class will receive a beautiful challenge coin to celebrate your participation, and anyone 16 and over can participate.
