With the new year beginning and the school year getting closer to the February to March slump, it’s hard to get excited about things and it’s even harder to find exciting things to do on the weekends that’s aren’t a repeat of last weekend and the one before. 

In Louisville we have local events that happen every month and usually every weekend.
