From Police Jury member Jeri Burrell:  To all riding clubs that host their ride in DeSoto Parish. There will be a workshop for special events permits at the Police Jury Building on Wed May 18, at 5:00 pm. Please come out so that you may be in the know as to what is taking place with the permits. I pray that we can work things out to work for everyone. Please pass this on. Thanks
