Testimonials From Happy Children and Parents:

I just wanted to email you regarding our experience with Backyard Adventures recently for our son's 3rd birthday party. My wife Gina and I had previously been to a birthday party in October of 2007 and since we had such a nice experience at that party, we decided to book our son's party there too. My wife and I were pleasantly surprised not only with the facility having a new party room but mostly with the service we received. Kyle and Missy both greeted us at the door upon arrival and promptly offered to help bring in all the gifts and party supplies. Missy took care of setting up the party room with the decorations we brought and Kyle entertained the party guests by performing on the trampoline. They both handled the children and themselves very professionally. Missy even wrote down an organized list of which gifts were brought by what guest for easy thank you cards. We will always recommend Backyard Adventures to anyone looking for a place to hold their children's birthday party. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience.
Sincerely, Matthew & Gina White (Carter White)

 
Dear Everyone at Backyard Adventures, Thank you so much for a wonderful birthday party. My friends, family and I had a wonderful time and my Mommy said she never had it so easy! Thank you for all your help and attention.

Love, E. Schell (and her Mommy and Daddy)

 

We had our son's 9th birthday party at Backyard Adventures/ GAR and we just wanted to thank you for a positive life-long memory William will now have. Not only did he think it was a great time, we heard many of his friends yelling to each other "This is awesome!" and one friend told his mom it was the best party ever. To us as parents, it was also a positive experience. Since we had two party assistants, we could witness our son's happiness rather than trying to keep the rambunctious kids in line. It was obvious the assistants knew how to keep the boys active and having fun but also following safety rules. Thanks for our first, but not last, wonderful party at your facility!

Sincerely, The Schuster Family


 
 
 

 

To the staff of the Gymnastic Academy:

 

I just wanted to take a moment and let you know how much we enjoyed my daughter's birthday party.  We were looking for something that would be fun for both boys and girls as well as for a variety of ages, and your party fit

the bill perfectly!  There was so much to do and the party flowed perfectly thanks to the many fun and exciting activities, but also due to the 2 party coordinators/helpers.   They really went over and above in unique ways that

most other facilities don't offer, including writing down a log of all the gifts so we parents could enjoy the moment.

 

Thank you for a wonderful birthday party ~ the success was evident in the huge smiles on the children's faces!

Rockford Gymnastics Academy, My son celebrated his 8th birthday at your gym last night. Anthony and April did an exceptional job as party hosts. We’ve hosted parties at several other locations throughout Rockford and your staff is easily the most professional and effective. Congratulations on attracting talented people to your facility and training them to excel.

Sincerely, Krissy V.
