Huntsville Weekend Roundup June 15-17

First, Happy Father’s Day weekend! We definitely love all of you awesome Rocket City Dads and there’s tons of fun things just for you included in our list below. As always, we specialize in finding free/cheap & fun things to do with kids in Huntsville. It’s kind of our thing.

And please check out our Summer Fun Guide to Huntsville & North Alabama. We worked hard to put all the movies, concerts, water fun, and special events in one place so you don’t have to look all over for them!

Big thanks to the U.S. Space & Rocket Center for making this guide possible!
