We miss you all SO much!

We've been busy cleaning, planning, and getting ready for the day we can reopen again. The building just isn't the same without all the giggles and shouts of little voices. So, when will that be? When can be all play together again? We're not really sure. Here are a few guiding principles we'll be following as we get ready to reopen. Hopefully, in the coming weeks, we'll have more details and set dates available for you.

We will follow the direction of the governor and our local legislative bodies. We have no interest in going rogue in the name of the play (at least not this time), so we'll be leaning on the leading of the experts. The current (very tentative) timeline wouldn't even allow facilities like ours to open until late June at best.
We want to open in a way that is safe to you and your families and us and our families. That means ironing out what kind of checks and safety procedures we'll need to have in place, what kind of number restrictions we'll have, and figuring out pre-sale tickets.
We aren't rushing to be first. Similar facilities might open before us once restrictions are lifted, but we are not going to race to an opening date if we don't feel we've created an environment that is safe and responsible for everyone.

With those guides in mind, our current hope is to be open for general admission sometime in mid-July. We will slowly reintroduce parties and group visits following that, but our primary goal is to just get people back to visiting and playing.

So what does that mean for camp?

Unfortunately, nothing good. It is with the biggest frowny faces and a lot of feet stamping, that we've made the decision to cancel Camp Bellaboo for this year. Even with a shortened camp season, too much of the fun and joy of camp would have to be removed to make it truly safe for a large group of campers. Camp is about getting messy TOGETHER, making discoveries TOGETHER, playing games TOGETHER, and generally just having fun as a group-- to do any of that from a distance or with extremely limited numbers just wouldn't be the same. We're already excited for the BEST Camp Bellaboo 2021 and are open to exploring off-season camp options if there's enough interest.

Bellaboo's Imagination Garden Pop Into Play Grand Opening is Also Postponed.

Getting to celebrate hundreds of birthdays each year is one of our favorite things about what we do.

And having to cancel so many parties was one of the most heartbreaking things we ever did. Our general manager, Kara, wrote and put together this little story for you-- the unforgotten celebrators, the at-home partiers-- to wish you the BEST birthday ever... even if it wasn't what you were expecting. With all of our love, enjoy.
