The second annual Santa's Underground Workshop is open at Rickwood Caverns State Park near Warrior, Alabama. Over 10,000 additional LED lights have been added this year along with more Christmas characters. Laser lights and fog have also been added this year. Rickwood park employees started working on the Workshop in September. Over 10,000 visited last year. The tour takes about 30 minutes but visitors can remain in the cave as long as they like. Santa has set up shop inside the cave with Mrs. Claus. You can also take a free photo with Santa. Visitors can take the tour for $10. Children under 3 are free. Tour hours are 2 p.m.-8 p.m. December 1-23. You can find further information here. Or check out the Facebook page here.
