The Sweet Golden Yam (sweet potato) has been something to celebrate ever since the Frenchmen, who established the first settlement here in 1760, discovered the native Indians eating sweet potatoes.  The Yambilee Festival is held the last full weekend of October, featuring carnival rides, food and game booths, live music and Yam-i-mal Competition.
