This weekend, families across Baldwin County have plenty of reasons to get out and enjoy some fun, festive activities.
From tots and toddlers to teens and adults, the calendar is packed with events designed to entertain, inspire and bring the community together. Kids can celebrate Mardi Gras in style, tackle puzzles in a friendly competition or burn off energy at open play sessions, while parents can enjoy the creativity, camaraderie and smiles that come with each event.
No matter your age, there’s something this weekend to celebrate community and creativity. Many of these events are free or budget-friendly, so families can enjoy special moments without stretching their wallet.
Here’s what’s happening around town.
