CITY PARK?The 2013 Louisiana Seafood Festival is poised to infiltrate City Park this weekend, and organizers are saying neither rain nor scorching sun will affect the schedule of events. The festival, which runs from Friday Oct. 11 to Sunday Oct. 13 and is FREE (!), has been quite peripatetic in recent years, showing up at Woldenberg Park in 2012 and in Lafayette Square in 2011.
