St. Tammany Parish, located in Covington, Louisiana, is set to welcome its first Costco store, with an estimated opening by the end of the year. The $45.8 million project marks the giant retailer's entry into the area, bringing a wide range of products and services to the local community. In addition to the exciting retail development, St. Tammany Parish offers a vibrant arts and entertainment scene, with plenty of opportunities to enjoy art, music, and theater during the Carnival season. The area also boasts a rich history, as seen in the revival of the century-old Carnival tradition by the Krewe of Bogue Falaya, bringing back a Lundi Gras tradition from over 100 years ago.Generated from the website
