About the DC LCC
The largest crawfish boil east of Louisiana all started 15 years ago.
Hosting a crawfish boil 1,500 miles from home is extremely expensive. In
2003, due to high costs and poor productions, LSU, ULM, UNO, and NSU,
decided to pool our resources so we could host a better quality event
for our members. By doing so, and contributing an annual membership
start up fee, the big alumni chapters were able to supply the ticket
numbers while hosting an event for far less money. Like wise, by joining
resources with the larger chapters, the smaller chapters were able to
create an official Washington, DC chapter while hosting a boil up here
for their alums at a minimum cost. Interesting enough, we were in the
red for the first DC LCC boil, barely consuming 300 lbs of crawfish, and
unable to float two kegs. Fast forward through 15 highly successful
years, along with the addition of La Tech, Louisiana State Society,
Loyola, McNeese, UL Lafayette, and Tulane, we have proudly created
the largest crawfish boil east of the Florida Parishes with over 10,000
lbs, 50 kegs of beer, tons of jambalaya, live Louisiana band, and much,
much, more. *All Louisiana alumni chapters are welcome to join.
