Celebrate 318 Day on March 18

Monroe-West Monroe, LA – March 18 or 3/18 is 318 Day. Since 318 is the area code for north and central Louisiana, it is the perfect way to celebrate the area we live and work in.

Discover Monroe-West Monroe has created a free coloring sheet to celebrate 318 Day. Anyone who brings a colored sheet to the Visitors Center, located at 601 Constitution Drive in West Monroe, will receive a prize.

Large “318” marquee numbers will be set up in front of the visitor’s center. Individuals are encouraged to stop by and take their photo with them.

Discover Monroe-West Monroe will celebrate 318 Day on social media with the hashtag #318Day. Everyone is invited to highlight something special about the 318 on their social media platforms. Discover Monroe-West Monroe will be active on social media that day, so be sure to tag them. They are @discovermonroewestmonroe on Instagram and Discover Monroe-West Monroe on Facebook.
