It's beginning to seem like wherever people are learning about space, there's going to be a Yuri's Night party nearby. Huntsville, Alabama is no exception. The home of the storied Marshall Space Flight Center, "Rocket City" will be hosting their first Yuri's Night party this April 12th. Co-hosted by the Huntsville Alabama L5 Society, a chapter of the National Space Society, and Huntsville Alive!, Yuri's Night Huntsville will be held at LeeAnn's, on 415 E Church St., starting at 7:30 PM.
Yuri's Night Huntsville will feature space-themed door prizes, live music by rock/country band Boogafunk, and appearances by several special guests, including members of the Dixie Derby Girls, Huntsville's Roller Derby League squad. LeeAnn's is even creating a special drink, the 'Yuritini', for this event, so make sure to stop by and enjoy the festivities.
