Huntsville Weekend Roundup June 12-14
Happy weekend, Huntsville! As the weather warms up, there are more things happening outdoors and around the Tennessee Valley. Whatever you choose to do we hope you’ll wear a mask when you can’t distance yourself from strangers. It doesn’t protect you but it might protect them and that’s protecting all of us.
And if you’re thinking of doing some reading, we suggest looking into one of these books for kids…
