Huntsville Weekend Roundup December 24-27
I’m kind of in shock when I see the date – even in the middle of a pandemic there are cookies to bake, gifts to wrap, batteries to buy, and halls to deck. I do plan on taking a break this weekend and actually spending TIME with my family, something that is infinitely more important than the hustle and bustle anyway.
Our full Event Calendar also has more activities happening in Huntsville this weekend if you don’t see anything below that suits your fancy. Just be smart – don’t forget your mask and hand sanitizer if you choose to go out. And really just stay home if you’re able.Â
