Indianapolis Competing with Much Larger Cities

I read a good article this evening in the IndyStar about how Indianapolis is really competing with larger cities. This article discussed how we’re continuing to expand entertainment districts and venues available to residents and visitors.

"In some of our fastest-growing industries . . . we’re competing with other cities like Boston and San Diego and Austin, Texas, and Seattle," said Michael Huber, Indianapolis’ deputy mayor for economic development. "We’ve got to make sure we’ve got an increasing number of diverse urban neighborhoods if we’re going to compete for talented, creative younger (workers)."

Good news to hear for businesses and residents. As more and more people see just how great this city is, it becomes more attractive to more investors and companies and people that would like to move here.

I’m not a big “night life” kind of guy, but I understand the value it can have to the city. There’s plenty of other positives to living and visiting Indianapolis as well.

Choose Laser Flash for Some Fun in Indy

Early in December my son wanted to have a small birthday party with just a few of his friends. Earlier in the year we had gone to Laser Flash up in Carmel for another friend’s birthday party and had a blast.

When it was time for my son’s party we knew we were going to head back to the Laser Flash laser tag facility in Carmel.

We decided to go with their Hassle Free Party Package which turned out to be everything we needed and more. Here’s what we received with our package.

• A 40-minute SESSION of Laser Flash
• 10 arcade game tokens per player
• Bottomless fountain drinks for the players
• A gift for the guest of honor
• Coupons for the other players
• Invitations
• Detailed score sheets for all players
• Free membership for all players
• Party table and a Party Coach for two hours
• Paper plates, cups, napkins, fork, and placemat
• Cake knife
• Candles and a lighter
• Peace of mind and a wonderful time

Because my son loves sports and BW3′s we passed on having any food at Laser Flash, but if we’d wanted we could have had them supply a personalized birthday cake or even Donato’s Pizza for our entire birthday party as well.

We all had a blast with our game of laser tag and all the boys had plenty of fun with all of the arcade games available too. Our 40-minute session consisted of three different mini-games. By the end the boys were firing on all cylinders and the two adults were ready to sit down and enjoy the bottomless fountain drinks to recharge.

The staff and team at Laser Flash did a fantastic job of making sure we all had fun, knew what was going on and made it a memorable and fun birthday party for my son’s 10th birthday.

Whether you’re looking for a place to have a great birthday party with your kids, some family entertainment, adult fun with your friends or maybe even some team building with your coworkers, you should think about Laser Flash in Carmel, IN.
