Good morning Tupelo! Today is Friday, January 3, 2020. It is the 3rd day of the year. There are 363 days left in the year (don’t forget this is Leap Year!) and 75 left of winter! Valentine’s Day is in 42 days, and Spring starts in 76 days.
HAPPENING TODAY
Today in Tupelo, here are the things going on around town:
The Bancorpsouth Arena will be open for Public Ice Skating today from 1:00 p.m. this afternoon until 9:00 p.m. tonight. Ice Rink Admission price is $12 per person and this includes skate rental.
Miranda Lambert’s Little Red Wagon Tour is partnering with the Tupelo-Lee Humane Society to help them get what they need to take care of all those sweet animals! From now until January 10, 2020, you can bring donations to Steele’s Dive to be entered into a drawing for two free tickets. There will be two drawings held on January 10 for the January 16th concert, meaning that there will be two lucky winners who will receive a free pair of tickets EACH.
