“Candi went above and beyond to make our party perfect!!  Tuck said this was the best day ever!” -Tuck’s Mom

“We absolutely LOVED the party…it was so much more than we expected…maybe publicize all the awesome activities and events you offer even more so people know what an amazing venue this is! Candi was exceptional and made Kate’s day very special! Thank you for the wonderful birthday memories!  Candi…you were AMAZING!  We loved everything about this party!  It was so much more than we were even expecting…and exceeded all expectations.  Both Kate’s friends and the parents there couldn’t stop talking about how much fun they had.  Thanks for making it really special with your educational yet fun approach with our kiddos!!” -Kate’s Mom
