Birthday Parties
"No Fuss, No Muss, Leave the Clean Up to Us" FOR YOUNG and OLD... No one is too young or old for a birthday party. Why not consider a bowling party for your next birthday event. We have several packages available and something for almost any budget. You are welcome to bring your own cake and candles with any package. Bumper lanes are a must so the kids won't have to worry about throwing the balls down the gutter each time so reserve your package today. With our 30,000 square feet Family Entertainment facility, we've got room to "spare" for all sizes of parties. Our bowling concourse and bowling seating areas are the largest in the state of Iowa. We also have the biggest game room in north central Iowa.
Fun Package
(Minimum of 8 Required) What a wonderful way to spend your child's birthday party. Rather than bowling just one game in 30 or 40 minutes and then wondering what to do to kill some time until the kids are picked up by there parents, this party is timed at 1 1/2 hours so if you keep them moving, they can get in a few games. This gives the children plenty of time to keep busy before you sit down to open presents and eat cake (kind of wear them down so you can get them sat down). You have the party after the bowling, and at that time, you will receive a pitcher of pop per lane and plenty of paper plates, napkins, cups, and forks for all of those attending (unless you bring your own designer tableware). You bring the cake, the candles, and the kids and we will supply all of the rest. You're guaranteed to have a fun filled party that your child will remember for the rest of their life. PIZZA: Why spend a fortune on Pizza when you can take advantage of so many deals at the franchises. The package doesn't include pizza but you are more than happy to bring in your own or have one of the local chains deliver to your lanes. Remember, you will have the party and be eating after your hour and a half of bowling so you have that much time to get some hot pizzas delivered for your birthday guests.

Corporate Parties

Use us for your next: Holiday Party, Company Special Event, Teambuilding, Wellness Program, Reward Program, Annual Meeting, Seminars. We can host and arrange for any of your party needs or arrange it to be catered to your specifications. Cosmic bowling, karaoke and a pizza buffet make for a fun and memorable combination. Let us know how we can help. Remember, your employees can enjoy bowling and pizza for less than the cost of a sit down meal at a local restaurant.
Reunions
This is getting more and more popular. Have everyone meet at the bowling center and take full advantage of all of our amenities for less than price of eating out or renting a facility at a hotel. Either rent all or part of the building or have everyone pay separately and see how the fun will keep them talking for years to come. Our 100 seat pizza parlor has a 10' projection screen to provide a nonstop slideshow of pictures of everyone (provide us with a DVD full of pictures) or hook it up to your laptop. Combine all of the activities of the game room and cosmic bowling with the karaoke and your favorite food and refreshments in the pizza parlor and you will have a sure hit on your hands. The banquet room is also available for additional table space and socializing. Pricing is very reasonable so before you book anywhere else, give us a call.
Banquet Room
Our banquet room is perfect for your occasional meetings and seats 30 to 50 people so before renting a room somewhere else, call us for a FREE one. There is generally no charge for the room as long as you are using the other amenities of our facility.
After Proms and After Graduations
No matter what size, we can accommodate this special event. Let us help you plan an awesome party. Everyone will always remember the lights and sounds of this cosmic experience.
Fundraisers
"Let Us Show You How To Raise Some Money". Do you know someone that is in need of a fundraiser or do you need to raise some money for a worth cause? Plan a fundraiser and use our facility to raise some funds. Our 30,000 square foot center is large enough to host almost any size of event you can imagine. Invite people for an afternoon or evening of pizza and bowling and get part of the proceeds back plus have an auction and do some raffles while everyone is enjoying themselves and having fun for a great cause. We can show you how just a few hours can produce thousands of dollars for your event. It just takes some time and energy from a few people to help organize an event that will draw many people for your special fundraising event. Appoint your coordinator and we'll give them some tools to produce a successful fundraiser. Lots of possibilities to raise several thousand dollars in just a few hours. Call us before you try something else.
