Can you believe it is almost the end of April? Here at Roller Cave in Indianapolis Indiana, we are having a hard time believing it ourselves! This year is flying by, and it can feel like you are getting all twisted, so we thought we would celebrate just that! This weekend is Get Twisted Weekend at Roller Cave! 

What does getting twisted actually mean?

Getting twisted is a way to have fun, and be a little wacky at the same time. We will have twisted ring pops, slushies, a pretzel deal, and more! There will also be fun contests like the Twisted Clothes Contest. The winner will be the person who can clash the most! It will be a chance to let loose and have fun NOT fitting in!

On Sunday April 24th

After we get twisted, we will have our Christian Family Skate Party on Sunday April 24th from 6:30-9:00pm. It will be a time of good, clean fun and a great time to reconnect with your family.

As always, Roller Cave will have clean, safe, family friendly fun while embracing the core values on which the rink was founded. We hope you and your family will take some time this weekend to join us. With the year flying by so fast, do not let your kids’ childhood pass you by; enjoy every second with them. Roller skating with us is one great way to do that. We hope to see you and your family this weekend at the cave! Also, be sure to check our schedule regularly and never miss our awesome events again!

In the early 20th century, Nikola Tesla toyed with the idea of a world-wide wireless system. In the 1930’s and 1940’s, visionaries such as Paul Otlet, and Vannevar Bush began formulating mechanized, searchable storage systems for books and media. The first workable prototype came in the late 1960’s with the creation of ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network) which was funded by the U.S. Department of Defense. What in the world are we talking about? The internet, of course! The internet is so ingrained in every aspect of modern life, we rarely stop to think of a time we did not have it. One fantastic aspect of the internet is social media, meaning outlets like Facebook, Twitter, and Google+, and here at Roller Cave in Indianapolis, Indiana we wanted to pay tribute to these great social outlets by hosting a Get Social Weekend April 8th, 9th, and 10th!

We will be promoting special giveaways on Facebook and Twitter, and offering special deals and discounts exclusive to our social media outlets. We are even incentivizing you to like and tweet us while you are here with fun prizes. You are already online, why not tell your friends and get a chance to win a great prize?

The whole month of April we are having themed weekends with prizes and incentives! Next weekend is Bring a Book Weekend, and you can gain free skate rental with a new or gently used book donation! That Sunday (April 17th) will also be our Gospel Roll, which is always a fantastic time! We have more in store for the month of April, so, mark your calendars, and make plans to be here!

“Swing batter, batter, batter…Miss batter, batter, batter!” It is that time of year again; it is baseball season! This is the time of year people dust off their cleats and hit the field.

Roller Cave is not only a great place for children to expel some of their pent up energy, but can also be a fantastic place for business people to relieve some of their stress!

Your daughter is turning four next month! You have already talked it over, and she decided that she wants her party at Roller Cave. She is your only child, so you have no precedent set for how to throw a party. You have read every online forum and blog only to be more confused than ever. At Roller Cave, we want to help! Check out some tips for throwing your child’s party! 

At what age should I throw my child’s first party?

It is generally accepted that around four or five is a good age to throw their first party. At this age, the child has distinguished tastes and is starting to have friends and people they know from school or sports.

How many kids should I invite?

A simple equation is used to figure this one out: the birthday child’s age + one=number of guests. This is often ignored, but it seems appropriate, especially for the younger ones, as to not be overwhelmed.

What about RSVP’s?

The truth is that many of your guests will not RSVP, even if they are coming. An RSVP is very important for a head count, and it gives the guests and the host/hostess a chance to clear up any misunderstandings, such as the issue of bringing siblings.

Do I have to invite a child simply because they invited my child to their party?

You are not required to invite everyone who invited your child to her party. If your daughter is actually friends with another child, sure, invite them; if not, do not feel obligated.

Whether your child is turning four or fourteen, we hope they choose to have their party at Roller Cave! To find out more about our party options, click here!

As human beings, our main distinguishing factor from our primate brethren is the fact that we are bipeds, as opposed to quadrupeds. One of our earliest accomplishments, after all, was the ability to walk. It seems almost counter-intuitive to then strap wheels to our feet, throwing off balance and making speeds unpredictable, but we have been doing it for years! Roller skating at Roller Cave is one of the area’s favorite pastimes, and here are some of the reasons why!

It is a great, and fun way to get your exercise!

Physical fitness is important to people of all ages, but it can quickly turn into a monotonous, and boring routine. Spice up your exercise routine by roller skating! It is cheaper than a gym, more fun than a yoga class, and burns way more calories than sitting on your couch!

Cost analysis

Roller skating is one of the cheapest, and easiest ways to get your exercise in for the day. Other than the cost of the skates themselves, and any safety equipment you would like the cost is minimal. A gym membership, home gym, bicycle, or almost any other means to exercise will not be as fun or as economical as a night at the rink!

It can be a great way to bond with friends or family!

Want to rekindle a romance? Want to get closer to your teenager? Want to reconnect with your second cousin? Physical activity is one of the best ways to do this, and roller skating is a fun and easy way to get your exercise, making your more physically fit, and making you feel better!

So, what are you waiting for? Grab your skates (or rent them from us) and come on in! We have themed nights, and specials all the time, making the decision practically made!
