On Tuesday, January 26, 2016 Minneapolis Northwest Tourism celebrated their 30th Anniversary where guests were treated to a reception, followed by an Annual Meeting, and entertainment hosted by Whirlyball in Maple Grove .
After an informative Annual Meeting for the organization, guests were treated to some Laser Tag and Whirlyball! Shawna Sukow from SPIN challenged a group to a lively round of Laser Tag, which was a first for me. Basically, you put on a vest with sensors, a laser gun is attached, you're sent into a two story darkened cavern with funky music, and off you go! Wind your way through to find your next victim, or look for a little nook and lie in wait. This is a great activity, especially if you have a group, guaranteed to bring out the competitor as well as loads of laughter! Next up was a SPIN around the Whirlyball floor, no pun intended. You're strapped into a bumper car, given a scoop, a whiffle ball is thrown onto the floor, and it's game on!! The idea is to scoop up the ball and score by hitting a target similar to a basketball hoop. It's hilarious as maneuvering the bumper cars is as challenging as trying to chase a little ball around the court with other folks trying to maneuver their cars! Whirlyball is a great place, with a fabulous staff, good food, a full bar, and a fun way to spend time with co-workers and friends! www.whirlyballtwincities.com
This area of the Twin Cities is a favorite of mine and perfect for your groups that don't want to be in a downtown big city environment, but want all of the amenities, and more. Visit www.minneapolisnorthwest.com for additional information! They have a fabulous website and a top notch staff waiting to help you with anything you need, guaranteed!!
