(They supply everything, even the cleanup.)

๐Ÿง  Bonus points for team-building! Whether you're with coworkers, teammates, or friends, this is next-level bonding with no spreadsheets required.

What started as one mom's idea for her Nerf-obsessed kid has turned into one of Jersey's most fun-filled indoor experiences.
