[KNGT-FM] - One of our favorite things to do is to gather the family together and have a night out. Fortunately, here in Southwest Louisiana, we have a ton of things to do with our family and kids. Events like Movies Under The Stars, Skating events, Downtown at Sundown concerts series, and Farmers Markets are just some of the things we look forward to every year.

Another great thing to do with your kids is to get them involved with the community and have them get to know our local fire and police departments. It is good for them to learn about what the brave men and women in law enforcement and fire departments do, and also, if they ever are in need of some help, they will know who to call.
