A December to Remember


It truly is a magical time here on the Alabama Gulf Coast. Not only will there be lots of fun-filled holiday activities taking place in the area, there will also be two sports events for you to enjoy during December. You’ll have the opportunity to be a spectator at one and a participant in the other.

Like fishing and golf, baseball happens year-round here in Gulf Shores Orange Beach. Baseball All-Stars from around the state will be headed back to the ball park to compete for the title in the USSSA Fall Alabama State Baseball Tournament on December 13. While you’re in the area, head out to the Orange Beach Sportsplex cheer on your favorite player as you watch baseball at its finest.

After all of the Christmas festivities are over this year, how about a jump start on taking off that extra holiday weight? No need to wait until after New Year’s Day. The last event of 2014 is set to take place on December 27. Sign up to run, jog, walk or even crawl to the finish line in the Make it to the Line 4 Mile Run/Walk & 1 Mile Fun Run. The run will be starting and finishing at the Flora-Bama Lounge. The whole family can come out and participate together in this fun event.

Individuals and families of up to three members can compete in this event. Trophies will be awarded three deep for all age groups in the both run and the walk. Special awards will be given for the following groups: overall male, overall female, overall wheelchair, master male, master female, grand master male, grand master female, senior grand master male and senior grand master female runners and walkers.
