Off the Trax will host the first series of the fourth annual Claim the Tail Crawfish Boil Competition on Saturday, March 28.
Off the Trax owner Seth Stewart said he was approached by organizers about being a host earlier this year. The 2026 series will continue at events in Baker and Crestview, he said.
Teams can register through March 23rd. There is a $200 entry fee, which gets a team four event wrist band, as well as crawfish, which is provided by Off the Trax.
“They can start cooking at 8,” Stewart said. “They have to turn in their crawfish to be judged at noon. Then, from noon until 4 p.m., the event will be open to the public as an all you can eat event with $25 admission wristbands.”
Admission is $10 for children.
While judges will just consider crawfish, the crawfish will be served to the public Low Country Boil style, with potatoes and corn, Stewart said. The public also will select the People’s Choice winner.
The event will be held in the parking lot adjacent to Off the Trax, which is located at 234 S. Cotton Street.
