Fest fIND 2013: Here are the code words

by Walter Pierce

If you're looking to score some serious goodies during the Thursday-Sunday run of FIL, you'll need to know the code words.

Find the staff member in the cap, say the code word(s), win a backpack stuffed with awesome stuff!

If you're looking to score some serious goodies complements of IND Monthly and Festival International de Louisiane during the Thursday-Sunday run of FIL, you'll need to know the code words. We told y'all last week where and when each IND staff member would be stationed during Festival. So all you have to do is be the first person to find that staff member (in the fuzzy blue cap) and say the code word(s). Winners will receive a backpack stuffed chockablock with Festival International merchandise, gift certificates to downtown restaurants, CDs and vouchers for adult beverages that can be redeemed immediately (or later, if you choose) at our office on Jefferson Street.

What's in the backpacks, you wonder? This: a Schilling Distributing boutique beer pack, a bottle of Ron Saul Tequila, gift certificates from Saint Street Inn, La Caretta, Tsunami and Jefferson Street Pub, CDs by Brother Dege, Caleb Elliott and En Francais 2, a merchandise from the Lafayette Convention & Visitors Commission, Festival International and IND Monthly.

Because of the adult beverages, participants must be 21 years old or older to participate.
