Local Happenings 1/13/12

Starting today, I'm going to include a special "local happenings" topic into my repertoire of posts! My goal is to have one local-focused post every Thursday or Friday, specifically focusing on events or happenings on the cheap around the area for the coming weekend. And of course I will continue to post other types of local deals throughout the week as I become aware of them. Local Happenings this Weekend:

• Los Padres National Forest "Fee Free Weekend" Jan 14-16. - in all areas of the LP National Forest where an Adventure Pass is normally required, (such as Red Rock ), the fee is being waived in recognition of MLK Jr. Day. With the beautiful weather expected this weekend, now is a great time to take advantage of what our National Forest has to offer, and it's free!
  
  
• ONE Children & Maternity Overstock Sale - Saturday 1/14, 10 AM-2 PM. - If you are a mom or expecting, you need to check out ONE in Buellton! Trust me, it's worth the drive when they have a sale! This weekend they are having an overstock sale - 20% off storewide, 40% jackets, gloves, and hats, and only $2 for certain items.
  
  
• Star Parties at the SB Natural History Museum - Saturday 1/14, 7:30-10 PM - On the second Saturday of every month, the Museum offers public observations at the Museum's Palmer Observatory. These Star Parties are hosted by members of the Santa Barbara Astronomical Unit, who provide telescopes and their expert knowledge of the night sky. Star Parties are held in conjunction with Evening Exclusive planetarium shows. FREE for members. Non-members: $2/adult and $1/child.

Have a great weekend!
