The Tree House has Landed

So the tree house equipment is here in Truro.  Thanks to several strong backs and cooperative weather, we managed to get everything in the right place.  There are still a few items that need to be ticked off of the to do list before it gets put together, but we are moving forward.   

A special thank you goes out to Ryleigh's Uncle JJ, without whom we may never have figured out how to get everything in the right place.  His spacial ability came in handier than an octopus when it came to manuevering heavy equipment around.  This was especially important last weekend when the truck we were supposed to rent was misplaced leaving us seemingly without wheels.  We visited Discount Truck Rentals and Brett McCully was able to save the day. The truck was smaller than we had ordered from the other guys, but it was in Truro, and that was the relief I was looking for.   Either way JJ figured out how to get all of the equipment into a smaller truck and bam we were in business.  I told him I would never again challenge him at Tetris.  

Shopping for equipment and games for Rylegh's Place has been so much fun.  Add to the list a big pile of suggestions from you guys and there is an enourmous amount of options.  I like to go to the store and look at everything before I buy, but I'm sure there will be lots of stuff that needs to be order online.  It will be fun to see the first run of smiling faces scoot through the centre trying to figure out what they will do first.  

We also discovered a great organization in Halifax, who will provide your party with a huge assortment of cartoon characters to really take things to the next level.  HRM Mascots have been terrific to work with so far.  Check them out on Facebook for some pictures.  

This week we should be launching our website and crowdfunding campaign so you guys can finally get a look at some of the play time options we are offering. We will have the party information everyone has been messaging for at that time.  If there is something special you are hoping to find out this week let us know so we can included it on launch day.  The crowdfunding will offer some huge discounts on playtime as well.  I don't want to give too much away though. 

Things are progressing; we can't wait to open; and we're getting excited about finally meeting all of you.  Keep your questions and comments coming.  We just hit 700 Likes too.  Share, like and comment to keep spreading the word.
