Win Skating Passes for Naming our Bears!

Hey Roller Kingdom skaters, we need your help! Both of our Roller Kingdom locations have mascots. Our Tyngsboro skating rink has a pink bear, and our Hudson skating rink has a panda bear. Like all mascots, our bears have become a part of the family at Roller Kingdom. They have been spotted skating at birthday parties, photo bombing, and participating in all things Roller Kingdom.#nameourpinkbear

There are famous mascots associated with theme parks, cereals, cookies, and restaurants. They all have something in common that our bears do not have. They all have names. Yes, you read that right, our Roller Kingdom bears are currently nameless.

We are asking our skaters, lasertaggers, karaoke singers, and arcade game players to help us come up with creative and fun names for our Roller Kingdom bears during our April Vacation Skates. We will reward the person that names our panda and the person that names our pink bear with two free skating passes to Roller Kingdom!

Here’s what you need to do:

1. Come on out to our Spring Break Skate.

2. Post your suggestion for each of our bear’s names to @Roller_Kingdom on Twitter. Make sure that you hashtag #nameourpanda for our Hudson panda bear. If you’re entering by naming our pink bear at the Tyngsboro Roller Kingdom, make sure you hashtag #nameourpinkbear.

3. All entries for the Hudson panda bear must be received by 4:30 pm on Friday, April 25, 2014. All entries for the Tyngsboro pink bear must be received by 4:30 pm on Friday, May 2, 2014.

#nameourpandaWhat are you waiting for? Mark your calendar for next week’s April Vacation Skate so that you can come on out and see our bears! Our Hudson April Vacation Skate is Monday – Friday (April 21-25) from 1 pm – 4 pm, and our Tyngsboro April Vacation Skate is Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for two weeks (April 21, 23, 25, 28, 30, and May 2) from 1 pm – 4 pm. Don’t forget we’ve got face painting at both locatons on Friday, April 25!

We can’t wait to announce our winners! Make sure you follow along on Google +, Twitter, and Facebook to see all of the great names that our skaters come up with!

Epic Birthday Parties with the PRIZE CUBE!

Roller Kingdom birthday parties are always special occasions, but now they are even better because we’ve got an added element of fun! Hudson birthday parties now include a visit to our brand new Prize Cube in addition to roller skating. When the birthday child, teen, or adult enters the Prize Cube, they will have 15 seconds to gather as many prize tickets as possible in a whirlwind of fun.Prize Cube at Roller Kingdom

Prize tickets will be swirling and whirling around the Prize Cube for our birthday guest of honor to catch. You may think you’ve seen similar cubes elsewhere, but the Prize Cube at Roller Kingdom is one of a kind. In fifteen seconds a birthday boy or birthday girl will manage to catch as many prize tickets as they can. Some may think that fifteen seconds seems like an eternity with time standing still as prize tickets fly around in every which way. Whatever prize tickets are snatched from the air in the Prize Cube could equal some pretty awesome stuff.

Are you wondering what this awesome stuff includes that our birthday honorees could have snagged? The awesome stuff up for grabs, with the capture of the right tickets, includes tasty treats from our snack bar, free skating passes, and a pair of brand new roller skates!

We suggest that you don’t delay! There is no age limit in place, and you know that all guests will have a great time spinning their wheels out on our rink! Call us at 978-562-3439 or click here to schedule your next birthday party at Roller Kingdom in Hudson.

Tips for Successful Fundraising

Fundraising is something that nearly every organization needs to partake of in order to meet some sort of financial goal. It has been said that in fundraising, you have to have a plan and a place to land! We have a few tips that we would love to share with you, inspired by Constant Contact, for helping plan a successful fundraiser. We would also love to help make your event a success by offering up our Tyngsboro or Hudson rinks as a great place to land for your event!

Successful Fundraising1. Plan in advance

It is recommended that you plan your fundraising event at least six months in advance. This will allow for plenty of time to get the word out for your event, book your event venue at Roller Kingdom, gather prizes and supplies, and plan all of the other details.

2. Decide what type of event

It is important that in your planning, you carefully consider what type of event you would like to hold. We have seen many successful events in our roller skating rink that include lots of fun! Fun is the theme as all participants get involved. After all, once participants arrive at Roller Kingdom, who can resist lacing up a pair of skates and taking a few laps around the rink? Are you looking for additional sources of income during your event? Consider a 50/50 drawing while at our rink or a silent auction. These options will help raise additional funds and allow your guests to get more involved!

3. Location is key

All realtors know their number one selling point is location, location, location! This is also true of fundraisers! At Roller Kingdom, we are proud to say that we offer a top notch fundraising location that will insure a successful fundraiser, rain or shine! There is no worry about a cloudy or rainy day raining on your parade (or fundraising goals) here!

Contact us to book your next fundraising event for your school, church, or organization, in Tyngsboro or Hudson today! We’d love to help make your event a success and see your participants smiling!

End of Season Parties at Roller Kingdom

While Roller Kingdom is a great place for birthday parties, did you know that we offer rink rentals and private parties for other events? Our rink rental and private party packages have been taken advantage of for end of season parties, corporate outings, team building activities, and team sign ups. These are just a few of the things we’ve seen our private parties and rink rentals used for over the years.94044516

Once you get your crew to our rink, the fun will begin as people won’t be able to resist putting on a pair of skates or taking each other out in a game of laser tag. You can keep the beat going with our karaoke, and of course we can offer custom concessions or catering to make your event a mouth watering success as well!

Here are some scenarios to help make your next event a moment that everyone will remember:

End of Season Parties

You’ve worked hard as a team the whole season. Whether it was football, basketball, cheer, dance, hockey, or any other sport, you know the bittersweet feeling that comes with the end of the season. It’s sad that it’s over, but a party is the best way to make those last memories and celebrate the victories of the season. Why not book it at Roller Kingdom in Hudson or Tyngsboro?

Corporate Outings

You work with each other in the office on a daily basis. However, it is important to get out and put the famous phrase, “Work hard, play hard.” Host your next corporate outing at our rink. This is a great opportunity to see how well you really balance work and life, or at least how well you and your co-workers can balance on skates!

Team Building

Build your team participation with our activities and events. We can help get your group participating in the Hokey Pokey, the Chicken Dance, or even do a variety of races around our floor. All of this will leave your group feeling like you’ve had a little bit of quality time together to bond. Perhaps a game of laser tag will help with team building as well!

Team Sign Ups

Parents, coaches, and kids love this win win options! If you are looking to get people signed up for your event or your sports team, use our rink as a sign up location! You’ll have a place to mingle with participants, parents can get to know each other, and everyone can get on out there and skate!

Of course, these are just a few ideas for events that work at our rink. Roller Kingdom is happy to accommodate a large or small group for your next event. Visit our Private Parties page to find out more and give us a call or contact us today!

 

 

The GREAT SKATE REBATE!

We have a brand new deal for you at Roller Kingdom! We are calling it the Skate Rebate, and this has everything to do with your purchase of new skates. This deal is so great, and so exciting that we couldn’t help but share the news with you!  Skate Varieties at Roller Kingdom

First, you know that we have one of the best skate shops around. Not only do we carry a fine variety of skate styles and sizes in stock, but we also custom order any type of skate, wheel, or bearing, that your heart desires.

We also allow you to try your skates out before you buy them. We want you to love your skates and love to skate, so we make sure that you have plenty of opportunity to try your new skates on, take a few spins around the floor at Roller Kingdom, and make sure you are completely satisfied.

Now, you might be thinking that our Skate Shop sounds pretty darn good right about now. However, it gets even better! This is where our BRAND NEW deal comes into the picture! Right now if you make a purchase in our Skate Shop, we will celebrate with you by giving you a Skate Rebate for the same amount you spend!

What is this Skate Rebate you ask? It’s simple! Let’s just say that we order you a pair of custom skates, you try them out, fall in love with them, and then you decide to purchase them. Let’s take this scenario a tiny bit further and pretend that you bought Reidell Dart skates for $99. At the time of your purchase, you will not only get an amazingingly awesome new pair of speed skates, but we will hand you a Skate Rebate card for $99. This Skate Rebate card can be used for admission to any of our public sessions. We will deduct the amount from the card each time that you use it. If you are a penny pincher and love to come to our Wednesday night Dollar Nights, you can skate for free for nearly two years! Of course the Skate Rebate can be used for admission to all of our other public sessions as well.  There is a limit of one admission per session.

Don’t let this opportunity pass you by! Check out our Skate Shop at our Tyngsboro Roller Kingdom, or at our Hudson Roller Kingdom. If you aren’t able to make it in right away, feel free to preview and browse what we have to offer online!

What did you call “Tag” while growing up?

Who knew there were so many variations to the game of tag? Wikipedia has over 20 variations listed! You may have grown up calling it Cops and Robbers, Freeze Tag, or Duck, Duck, Goose, but truthfully you didn’t care what it was called. All that you cared about was that you were lost in the fun of the game! Here at Roller Kingdom we call it Laser Tag and we want you to relive or make your childhood memories in our arena.3D Laser Tag at Tyngsboro

Laser Tag at our Tyngsboro rink has recently been upgraded to include a 3D experience! This adds another dimension as you dive behind the barriers within our labyrinth of obstacles. Games at both locations last for ten minutes; long enough to keep you on your guard and allow you time to team up in an alliance or enter the battle alone. With the lights and music setting the scene, you may enter our arena full of barriers and blocks as friends but soon transform into enemies as you take on each other using our state-of-the-art target system.

Not only is our Laser Tag a great addition to a birthday party, but it also makes for a great team building experience for corporate events. Imagine having a good time with co-workers and letting your hair down in a game of Laser Tag! Change up the day-to-day cubicle work and get out for a little team bonding in our arena!

What are you waiting for? Call us today to book your next birthday party or corporate event with Laser Tag. Of course you don’t have to wait for a party or an event to play, you can play a game before or after skating around our rink anytime!

Make sure you follow us on FacebookGoogle +, and Twitter to find keep up with Roller Kingdom news and events!

At Roller Kingdom, we celebrate our love of skating by providing a healthy and fun way to exercise. Normally, we encourage everyone to skate, skate, and skate!

Fundraising at Roller Kingdom

Is your organization looking to earn a little extra money? We make it easy to help you raise the extra funds and allow your group to have fun at the same time.

How do we make it so easy?

It’s simple. Organizations that fundraise with us pay a flat fee to rent the rink in Hudson or Tyngsboro. After renting the Roller Kingdom rink, your organization is able to collect funds from your event participants. Most of our organizations charge from $7-$ 10 for entry. This allows them to easily recoup the rink rental fee and make a profit in addition. While your organization takes care of the entry fee, we will take care of the skates. Skates for our fundraising events are $3.

Call us or contact us to book your next private party of fundraiser. We can answer any additional questions that you may have.
