      Pre-school - 5th Grade

      It’s that time of year again! Our Annual Little Gents event with a Loved One returns on March 14th, and we couldn’t be more excited—especially this year.

      We’re shaking things up with a brand-new twist and a new name: Little Gents Showdown with a Loved One! This year, we’re trading in the traditional dance for high-energy fun with Battle GR Tactical Games and Sports.

      Get ready for an action-packed evening featuring Laser Tag, inflatable axe throwing, fowling, life-size Hungry Hungry Hippo, and several other exciting games. Come dressed and ready to battle alongside (or against!) your loved one for an unforgettable night of fun.
