Our 7 person family group had a great time in the Zen room. Everyone was able to contribute, working together on some things and independently on others. The occasional hints on the monitor were very helpful. We escaped with two and a half minutes to spare.

When my sister told me tbere was an axe-throwing place in Springfield, I didn't believe her. When I finally DID, we HAD TO go, and we were not disappointed!! It's definitely a bit different, but I adored that about this place! If you don't know how to toss an axe, that's fine - THEY TEACH YOU! They even show you a couple of different methods so you pick what you're most comfortable with, then it's all you. Staff are all super nice and patient while teaching you. You can get in separate lanes (a bit like bowling) and throw at targets. Once you feel comfortable, you can compete against your friends! It was a great time had by all, and not only do I highly reccommend this place, but plan on returning soon myself!

We came here with another couple as a date night out. It was so much fun! The staff are very welcoming and informative. They were helpful and they made it so fun! We enjoyed it so much we tried the prize lane and 2 of the 4 of us won prizes. They even gave us each a coupon for our next visit. They had a nice selection of drinks, corn hole, giant jenga, and of course the awesome axe throwing. They offer different specials on different nights so we plan to go again and try some of their other throwing weapons! What a blast! Professional and fun people creating a thrilling fun atmosphere!

Great exercise, and kids are so happy with themselves when they can improve visibly. Even if they are pretty bad, if they don't give up, they are thrilled with themselves! Affordable, I believe $5.00 for students, plus $3.00 for skate rental. Their website has a calendar with hours for open skating. There is an area around the rink to watch, but it is chilly, so wear your coat. There is also stadium seating upstairs, and even warmer seating upstairs, too, but limited viewing and picture taking. Once you're upstairs, there is another rink used for hockey games, and while there, I saw a first--an Amish hockey team!
