Kids and adults can really have a day of fun at Boomers together, where two 18-hole courses of miniature golf let them square off … then the nearby bumper boats provide a fun place to cool off afterward.

There are two go-kart tracks – one for big kids and one for littler ones – as well as a center rock wall and batting cages for the athletic adventurers.

Little tykes will love all the carnival-type fun for small ones, like the miniature train and the frog “free fall,” and older kids and adults can have a great time at the indoor laser-tag center, as well as the arcade of video games. There’s a new “Sunset Surfer’s Grill” eatery on site.

Card-swiping makes playing easy for kids — they can truly stay all day and have plenty of fun.

HOT TIP: Have your children bring in their report cards (originals only) within 6 weeks to get three extra tokens for every “A” and two extra tokens for every “B.”

There are some height, weight and age restrictions for certain attractions.

Boomers is also a great place for birthday parties.
