Join Louisiana Clean Fuels for the inaugural Fall Fuels Fest — a fun, outdoor, clean transportation networking event set on the shores of Caney Creek Reservoir at the beautiful Jimmie Davis State Park in Chatham, Louisiana! Ditch the office for a day of networking, live entertainment, great food, and friendly competition in the outdoors.
Announcement: Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, admission is now FREE if you RSVP online or $5 at the door — children 12 and under are free when accompanied by a paid adult. Door prizes include a chance at winning a $200 gas card!

Explore an outdoor alternative fuel vehicle display and exhibitor expo, taste your way through a Jambalaya Cook-Off judged by Cajun fiddler and Louisiana legend Amanda Shaw, and cast your vote for the best bowl in North Louisiana! Enjoy live Cajun music by Amanda Shaw, check out the vendor displays, play a round of frisbee golf or volleyball, hang out by the beach, and stick around for door prize drawings.
