Warren – Things to do with your Team
In terms of being a city, Warren is generally young compared to most in the United States. The territory where Warren would eventually stand was settled back in 1830, but it wasn’t until 127 years later in 1957 that Warren was incorporated as a city. The town of Warren officially received its name in 1838 and steadily grew both in size and population until 1970. Major companies, like General Motors, set up shop there and contributed to its consistent growth. In current day, Warren is Michigan’s third largest city in terms of population and has a lot for residents and visitors to do for fun.
Zap Zone Utica/Sterling Heights
You can find Zap Zones all over Michigan, but the one in Sterling Heights is only about a 20 minute drive from Warren. Zap Zone has everything your team could want when they’re looking to have a good time. Amass not a team, but an army and face off against two other squads in Zap Zone’s enormous laser tag arena. This multi-level arena can fit 40 players at one time! This will be a tough laser tag experience to top. If you somehow manage to pull yourself away from laser tag, Zap Zone has much more in store for you. Set some high scores in their arcade and collect tickets to earn a prize. Collide into teammates on the bumper cars or play an intense version of Simon Says in Time Freak. At Zap Zone, your team can also play glow mini golf, and mini bowling. Good luck rounding everyone up when it’s time to leave because the kids definitely won’t want to. 43680 Van Dyke Ave, Sterling Heights MI, 48314
Airtime Trampoline & Game Park
Your team will flip out for a chance to go to Airtime Trampoline & Game Park. This is a great place to allow them to run a little wild and let them use up any extra energy they might have. Airtime’s open trampoline section is perfect for jumping or flipping however you want. Launch off floors and walls of trampolines and find out how high you can bounce. Dodgeball is also played in this section, which will certainly liven things up even more. If you’d rather land on something with a little more cushion, try Airtime’s foam pit on for size. Dive or cannonball into their pit as many times as you want. Getting out can prove to be a little challenging though. Looking for a more aggressive way to enjoy the trampoline park? Strap on a helmet, grab a padded rod, and battle a teammate for control of the balance beam. First one to fall into the foam pit loses. For the ultimate trampoline professionals, Altitude has created a warrior obstacle course that is sure to challenge even the most physically fit. 662 East Big Beaver Road | Troy, MI 48083
