St. Bernard Parish officials announce Open House St.  Bernard postponed due
to oil spill

 

 

The Open House St.  Bernard event scheduled for Sunday, May 16 in St.
Bernard Civic Center is being postponed, due to the oil spill.

 

St. Bernard Parish Councilman Mike Ginart, event chair, said he was
postponing the event because all of his focus is on addressing the oil spill
and its potential impacts on St.  Bernard.

 

"We can't wait to reschedule it," Ginart said. "It is an important event to
showcase what our parish has to offer future and current residents and
businesses, but it must be done correctly. Now is the the time for me to
focus on working with parish, state and federal officials to take the needed
action to protect our coastline, marshes and fisheries."

President's Office at 504-278-4227. They may be reached by email at
