COMSTOCK PARK, Mich — The West Michigan Whitecaps are giving us a first look at the upgrades coming to GameTime Fun Park.
Formerly known as AJ’s Family Fun Center, the park was given a new logo to reflect some of the activities in store.
“We’re so excited to tie in GameTime fun with the ballpark experience for groups and private events,” says Dan Morrison, Vice President of Sales for the Whitecaps. “If you’ve got a group coming to a ballgame, what better place to meet beforehand than a go-kart track? Get your blood pumping, then take the quick walk across the parking lot to enjoy a thrilling Whitecaps game. Our sales team is equipped to handle all the legwork ahead of time, allowing you and your group to have a relaxed, fun-filled day.”
Upgrades include a revamped go-kart track that merges existing tracks into one large course. The karts themselves have also been updated with improved performance and safety features.
We’re told sweeping changes to the mini-golf course are also in progress, along with new signs and outdoor tents around the park’s exterior.
The Whitecaps gave us a look at some of the promotions coming to GameTime Fun Park, like unlimited-attraction wristbands beginning in April for visitors who come in Mondays through Thursdays, plus— every Thursday— hot dogs will only cost $1.
Officials say they are also planning sensory hours for guests who would benefit from them.
Opening day was set for Tuesday April 1st, but this week's storms caused a little damage to the equipment, so the first day has been pushed back in the week to Thursday, April 3rd.
