About the Event

An Evening of Crawfish
& Community

Each spring, the Strutters Executive Board hosts the Crawfish Boil — one of Tyler's most anticipated community gatherings. It's an evening of good food, great company, and genuine purpose.

Proceeds directly benefit the Strutters, who have organized the Texas Rose Festival Parade without interruption since 1939, and Tyler Area First Responders who keep our community safe year-round.

Whether you're a longtime friend of the Strutters or attending for the first time, this is East Texas hospitality at its finest — and your sponsorship makes all of it possible.
