Northside Location
What's the difference between the North location and South location?
The Northside location is located inside Shriners Hall – 14511 142 St NW and is not a permanent location like the Southside one. There are inflatable obstacles instead of wooden ones. There is no kitchen onsite and no seating area for extra guests. There are tables and chairs set aside for the birthday person and their guests that are playing. The maximum capacity is 18 players versus 25 in the Southside. Food can be brought in or ordered in. There is no plates or cutlery available onsite so each guest must remember to bring their own. The NERF Game is still 60 minutes (run by Foam Fighters staff) and 45 minutes at the party table afterwards.
