Looking for some free family fun this weekend?  Here is a round up of free activities and events.  It’s always a good idea to check with your local store before going to make sure that they are participating (especially if you’ve got a drive). Here is my top pick for the week!  We do the Bass Pro holiday events (they have them for Easter and Christmas) every year!
