The Alabama State University Hornets take the field in several sports. They play in the NCAA Division I competition in the Southwestern Athletic Conference. The university's football team plays at Hornet Stadium while the basketball teams hold court at the Dunn-Oliver Acadome. The Hornet baseball team plays at the ASU Baseball Complex.
The Alabama National Fair is not only a fun event held every fall, but also it has a higher purpose. The event's objective is to raise funds to support children and youth charities throughout central Alabama and the aid is distributed through the Kiwanis Club of Montgomery. Great food, fun and music are just a few of this festival's many attractions. But once it is all said and done, the overriding purpose of providing assistance to those in the area who are in need is successfully accomplished.
Sometimes when your kids get antsy and irritable, the best remedy is to let them run around outside and play for awhile. Montgomery's Vaughn Road Park is the perfect attraction for just that. This is a kid-friendly park and offers several large, expansive areas as well as state-of-the-art jungle gyms and other fun activities that will entertain even the most restless child. There are also plenty of great places to enjoy a picnic or just sit and watch the kids enjoy themselves.
Despite the economy's effect on the auto industry, Montgomery's commercial fortunes remain bright due to the fact the Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Factory makes its home here. The company offers a highly interesting tour if their facility. Learn firsthand about how cars are made, but be prepared to be surprised at some of the methods of operation. This is truly a cutting-edge operation that utilizes both robots and people working together as cars are assembled. The tours are offered daily.
