Egg Hunts, Astronauts, Roller Derby and More…Things to Do with Family this Week – April 10

If you’ve stayed in Charlotte for Spring Break this week, you definitely won’t be at a loss for things to do with the family. And, if you are looking to escape the family for a bit, check out Pure Barre Southpark’s Mother’s Morning Out. Every Thursday in April, you get a class (8:30 or 9:40), a protein bar and a mimosa or clean juice for just $20. Make sure you RSVP so they know to expect you.
