Our Party Manager will be happy to help make this the best party ever or, for you DYI party planners... check out Amazon/Party City/ Target or Walmart for great themed decorations! GRIT provides Red Balloons for your party. They are not Helium Balloons however as we are not in the balloon business. Feel free to call Party City! They deliver and have a wide assortment of colors and styles to choose from!

Do you have....? Here is a list of many of the items our customers ask most often. We do a lot of birthdays, so we do have many of the things that you need to make your party a success. Here is a short list... ✔️Matches ✔️Cake Cutter ✔️Bottle Opener/ Wine Opener ✔️Refrigerator/Freezer ✔️Buckets for Wine/Beer ✔️ Water Fountain ✔️ Extra Tables & Chairs Your party comes with: ✔️Red tablecloths ✔️ White Paper Plates, Cups and Plastic Silverware ✔️ Red Balloons ( non -helium) ✔️ Water or Juice for the kids GRIT is BYOB.

We love the idea of pinatas! They can be so much fun! But they can also be dangerous, very messy, and typically result in someone crying because they did not get the same or more candy or prizes as someone else! If you want to have a pinata, we do have a perfect spot for it, but we ask that it has a string to pull, is only filled with candy, and does not need to be batted open. The bat while fun, is also a bit dangerous. We have had some close calls and would rather avoid someone getting hit. So please, no pinatas that need to be hit to break open. We also love the idea of confetti! But please, not at GRIT. A pinata or special birthday popper with confetti is certainly thrilling, but it also creates quite a mess that needs to be cleaned up when your party is over. A confetti pinata gets everywhere and, as such, is subject to a special $150 cleaning charge. Why so much? Because we would rather you didn't:)

GRIT provides all the basics for your party. All party packages come with the following: White Paper Plates and Plastic Cups Red Table Cloths Plastic Spoons, Forks and Knives Juice boxes or Water Bottles for kids We also have on hand: 2 Refrigerators to keep things cold and a freezer if you bring an ice cream cake Cake Knife Bottle Opener Matches Bowls for food and a Drink Tub for wine/beer Please note- Bring your own ice as we don't own an ice machine.

Private parties are typically reserved for Friday nights, Saturday afternoons, and Sundays. Saturday evenings can be booked when there is no special event. You can book a party any time online by clicking on the BOOK A PARTY link or by calling/texting the Birthday Hotline @ 201.596.6626 or writing to birthdays@gritsportstraining.com

GRIT is filled with both foam and wooden obstacles. It is not designed for children under 3 without adult supervision. Although we permit younger children in the gym area, parents must watch over them because our coaches must concentrate on providing a fantastic birthday experience and are unable to guarantee the safety of non-participants in the gym area. Note- all people who enter our gym must sign the GRIT Safety Waiver and abide by our GRIT Safety Rules

Any child who participates in the private party activities in the gym will be counted as a "participant.” We understand that siblings may attend a party. If they participate in gym/ party activities, we will consider them part of the party and count them as such.

A $250.00* non-refundable and non-transferable deposit is required to reserve a private BASH or Ultimate party and $600 for UNLIMITED parties. Deposits are applied to the remaining balance at the end of the event. You can book a party any time online by clicking the BOOK A PARTY link at the bottom of the Birthday Party page or by contacting the GRIT Birthday Hotline at 201.596.6626 (text or call) or by emailing BIRTHDAYS@GRITSPORTSTRAINING.COM

This is your private party. We do not have a maximum, but we recommend at most ~ 50 people to keep the party comfortable. For parties with 30+ kids, an Ultimate Party Package is required, as is the hiring of an additional third coach for safety.

GRITs provides up to three tables for your guests to eat at plus a serving table, cake table, and a gift table. The three eating tables for the kids are standard rectangular folding 30" by 80" tables.

To ensure you get the time and date you prefer, we would recommend booking your party at least two months in advance. GRIT is typically booked out a month or two.

From check-in to clean-up, our coaches know how to throw a party that kids love! They will run the activities that make everyone, parents included, have a fantastic time!

After your guests have checked in, the party participants will be taken into the gym by our fantastic coaches, who will run the party games of your choosing! Make sure your cameras are ready as your birthday child and their friends have the time of their lives as parents cheer on the fun! With the games complete, its time for a group picture before food and the birthday celebration! You will have your GRIT to yourself during this entire time for your own PRIVATE birthday FUN!

Unfortunately, we cannot pencil in a date without a deposit of $250 to hold the spot for a BASH or ULTIMATE Party while UNLIMITED Parties require a deposit of $600. However, as soon as you are ready to book, you can reach out on the GRIT Party Hotline at 201.596.6626 (text/call) or email us at BIRTHDAYS@GRITSPORTSTRAINING.COM and we will help you secure your preferred date.

All participants in activities at GRIT must have a safety waiver signed by their parents. For birthday parties, we recommend that parents sign the waivers for their children on our website in advance so that they will automatically be in our system when they arrive. A signed waiver is required to participate in or enter GRIT. Waivers only need to be signed once. You can find "WAIVER" at the bottom of the GRIT website. Please note that waivers filled out incompletely will delay your child's time at the party, as each waiver will be checked prior to your child and their friends being allowed into the GRIT GYM.

We have a set of standard invitations for your party. They are available for $25 for BASH parties and are available for free with ULTIMATE and UNLIMITED Parties. GRIT will add your child's name, date, and details. All design changes require an extra fee of $25 per change request.

Extra Participant refers to any child who attends the party and participates in activities run by the coaches. Extra participants will be added to your final bill which we will send you once the party is over. The price is $30 per extra participant.

Nope! Why would we count the birthday child? You are here to have fun. Our base package is for "up to 15 participants" PLUS the birthday child and their siblings! A participant is any child on the course who is actively involved in the games and activities run by the coaches. We DO NOT charge parents, grandparents, or friends to stay and watch, nor do we charge babies and toddlers (under 3) who attend but do not participate. Want to add more participants? No sweat! We are happy to accommodate you (additional fees apply). Additional participants can be added for $30 per participant and will be added to your final invoice.

GRIT is known for its gym and our incredible coaches. For your party, you can pick up to two activities such as: - Parkour/ Obstacle Course Racing - Dodgeball - Chase Tag - Among Us! - Nerf Gun Battles* (Ultimate Party only!) - Tug of War ( a crowd favorite) Check out our Birthday page for an expanded list and details on each!
