BounceU is among the group of tenants to move into WinBrook Business Park, a 3-building, 169,000 s/f office/flex complex located on the west end of Brook St., one mile off Exit 23 on I-91.

The grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony were held on Sept. 30. The BounceU of Rocky Hill, part of a national franchise, will specialize in creating a private party experience, ideal for children's parties, mom's clubs, sports teams, and other events featuring the latest interactive indoor inflatable equipment, such as the bouncer, the bounce house and the giant slide, all located in a private stadium. Soon, BounceU will also begin offering children's enrichment programs, including the Create and Bounce art camp and Bounce and Learn, a structured play program designed for younger children. "Our goal is to create memories that will last a lifetime for families by providing a personally tailored, full service private party experience," said Simonelli. "Everything about BounceU spells fun," she said. "The games and inflatable structures are designed in such a way where kids and families can cut loose and have a great time in a safe, clean, private setting. It's the perfect party place for kids!"
