LAKE CHARLES Thefirstpeopleto settle the lake were Mr. and Mrs. LeBleu of Bordeaux,France. They arrived in 1781and secured their home six mileseast of the present

siteofLakeCharles,livinginpeacefulcoexistencewithseveral tribes of Indians. This area originally settled by the LeBleu's is now known as LeBleu Settlement. Other pioneers quickly ventured to Lake Charles. Among them was Charles Sallier who married LeBleu's daughter, Catherine. The Sallier's built their home on the lake, in the area now known as Lake Charles. After Charles Sallier built his home in this area, the lake became known as Charlie's Lake. By 1860 this areawas being called "Charleston" or "Charles Town." Settlers at the turn of the century acquired property from the Indians or they homesteaded the Rio Hondo lands. The Rio Hondo which flowed through LakeCharleswas latercalledQuelqueshue,anIndian termmeaning "Crying Eagle" and still later Calcasieu. Little isknownoftheseearlyresidentsexceptthattheywereamixtureofEnglish,French,SpanishandDutch.OnMarch7,1861,LakeCharleswasincorporatedasthetown of Charleston, Louisiana. The growth of the city was fairly slow until Captain DanielGoos came in 1855.He established a lumbermill and schooner dock, now Goosport, and promoted a profitable trade with Texas and Mexican ports bysending his schooner down-river into the Gulf ofMexico.Mostof thewoodwhichbuilt thecitycamefromGoos'mill.UntilthearrivalofGoos,JacobRyandominated the lumber industry. Ryan convinced the state government to move the parish seat to Lake Charles. Later that year, Ryan and Samuel Kirby transferred the parish courthouse and jailtoLakeCharles,atthattimecalledCharleston.Sixyears after the city was incorporated, dissatisfaction over thenameCharlestonarose.OnMarch16,1867,Charleston, Louisiana, was incorporated into the town of Lake Charles.

The City of Lake Charles is conveniently located on Interstate-10 betweenHouston, Tx. and NewOrleans, La. Our sandy beaches are nestled on the CalcasieuRiverjust30milesupstream from the Gulf of Mexico. Lake Charles isconnected to the Gulf by meansofadeep-watershipchannelandistheseatandportofentry of Calcasieu Parish. It is no mystery why Lake Charles and Southwest Louisiana are referred to as the "Festival Capital of Louisiana." With more than75 fairs, festivals and special events eachyear,ourareahascelebrationsdowntoanartform-completewithfood,music, lights and laughter.

The festivities kick off every year with a pirate ship bombardment to "take control of the city" at the seawall of the Lake Charles Civic Center.
