Mayor Arceneaux would like to thank the citizens of Shreveport for believing in Humor and Harmony and for showing the festival goers some Shreveport hospitality and love.

The Mayor stated, “I must also give a special thank you to all the city directors and employees, especially, SPAR Director Shelly Ragle, Marla Mitchell of the Convention Center (ASM), City Attorney Marcus Edwards, Property Standards Director Terrence Green, Public Works Director Gary Norman, Sportran CEO Dinero Washington, and all their staffs and employees, all first responders, including Police Chief Wayne Smith, Fire Chief Clarence Reese, Sheriff Henry Whitehorn and staff, City Marshal James Jefferson and staff, business leaders, and the entire Shreveport community. We managed to achieve what was most important… public safety, and a positive outcome.”

“Due to the close collaboration with highly professional G-Unit staff and consultants, we had a nearly seamless network to accommodate all the festival events and activities. Working together produced an amazing festival that was great for our community,” said Mayor Arceneaux.

The Mayor went on to say, “Everyone’s hard work not only met but exceeded our expectations, and it had a significant positive impact on the Humor and Harmony four days of events.”

“Councilmembers, thank you for your support and commitment to our great city!”

“Shreveport, we demonstrated this past weekend what the word teamwork means. Thank you once again, for your remarkable I Love Shreveport attitude. Let’s keep the positive momentum going!”
