Top Five COVID-19 Picnic Spots in Shreveport-Bossier

Tonight, I took the girls out for a little crawfish picnic. That got me thinking....

I don't know about you guys, but I'm completely tired of eating food at the house. So if you're like me, I came up with a shortlist of my favorite spots for a little COVID-19 picnic to help try to save your sanity.

  Betty Virginia Park

  Located in Shreveport off Line Ave, you absolutely have to enjoy a picnic at the lovely Betty Virginia park. The park itself is beyond spacious and well-maintained, making it a wonderful picnic location.

  Clyde Fant Parkway

  Clyde Fant is one of the most scenic, long stretches of road we have in town, running quite a long way along the Red River. All along the parkway, you'll come across long, beautiful stretches of openness, so bring a blanket and a basket of goodies and enjoy it.

  Your High School Football Field

  Naturally, this is only a safe, legal option if your high school's football field is open and available for use. Personally, I've brought this one out of the bag once or twice for perfect date nights. Nothing like it.

  The Duck Pond

  Everyone knows and loves the duck pond, and for good reason. It's an excellent location with a park, in a safe, beautiful area of town. Picnic at the duck pond is always a big win.

  Shreveport Riverview Park

  I debated leaving this one off my list to keep it as my own little secret, but I'll finally let you in on it. The beautiful downtown Riverview Park is immaculate and gorgeous. Feel free to have a picnic out there any day/night of the year, except for Valentine's Day night because my daughters and I have that spot reserved forever.
