Default RC Shopping around Lake Charles, La

I just recently moved to Lake Charles and fly Giant Scale Airplanes and 90 class Helis. I've yet to find a place to shop for fuels or supplies in this area. I found Bush RC in Sulphur but seems the number listed is not active. Any help would be great in regards to where to get fuels and supplies as well as where a good place in this area to fly. ie Flying clubs or something.

Thank you guys[/size]
