Premier Family-Friendly Entertainment Launches State-of-the-Art Technology Feature, Intellibands, in Two Parks With Additional Roll-Outs Coming Soon

DALLAS /PRNewswire/ — Altitude Trampoline Park, the leading family-friendly entertainment franchise, announced today its exclusive partnership with Intelliplay, Inc., a brand that is revolutionizing the indoor family entertainment industry with a patented smart wristband and gamification platform. This partnership will introduce Intellibands to Altitude Trampoline Park locations, offering cutting-edge technology designed to elevate the park experience for guests and improve overall park management for operators.

The Intelliplay system, featuring the Intelliband, aims to increase satisfaction for both guests and franchisees. Intellibands are advanced rubber wristbands equipped with radio frequency identification (RFID) technology. Key benefits of this technology include immediate identification of guests with expired jump time, gathering precise location and tracking data, increasing guest engagement through leaderboards and other gamified elements, and providing a convenient method to make purchases that grow overall revenue.

Replacing standard paper wristbands, Altitude staff will now perform check-ins through Intelliplay, scanning the Intelliband to link it to each guest’s ticket. This process ensures guests’ Intelliband lights up appropriately, allowing for seamless entry into the park. Staff can also monitor guest locations in real-time through a park map view.

Guests can look forward to several exciting features, including leaderboards. These allow kids to compete and earn points, making each visit to Altitude more engaging. Additionally, parents receive text notifications when their child’s time is about to expire, with a simple process to extend the time via phone. Intellibands also alert staff and parents if a child attempts to leave the facility, further ensuring safety and security in the park.

“We’re thrilled to introduce Intellibands to our parks. Altitude has been a trailblazer in the family entertainment industry, but this partnership with Intelliplay allows us to enhance our system by creating a new cornerstone for innovative technology, indoor activity, and fun that makes visits to our parks even more appealing and convenient,” said Mike Rotondo, CEO of Altitude Trampoline Park. “We are committed to continually improving the guest experience and look forward to seeing the positive impact Intellibands will have at our parks.”

The first Altitude Trampoline Park to officially roll-out this technology will be in Mason, Ohio, followed by Richardson, Texas. Prior to the official launch in Mason, Altitude tested this technology among customers and received great initial feedback. Customers found the wristband to be very secure and comfortable to wear, and overall felt the wristbands made for a better experience.

Altitude Trampoline Park is owned by Indoor Active Brands, a platform company that focuses on indoor entertainment concepts. This year, Indoor Active Brands launched its latest brand, The Pickle Pad, an indoor pickleball playground featuring a chef-inspired restaurant and bar – Crave Social Eatery, as well as yard and social games for all ages. Established by NRD Capital, Indoor Active Brands utilizes industry experience in the family entertainment and restaurant industries to support and assist its franchisees.

As summer winds down, the buzz of back-to-school preparations begins. It’s a time filled with shopping for school supplies, adjusting to earlier bedtimes, and setting up kids for a successful school year. While we often think of pencils, notebooks, and new backpacks, there’s another crucial aspect to consider—your child’s health. Ensuring they are physically and mentally prepared is just as important as having the right school supplies. Here’s a comprehensive health checklist parents should consider to ensure their children are set up for a healthy school year.

Annual Physicals and Required Paperwork

A yearly physical exam is essential to assess your child’s health and development. It’s a perfect time to update any necessary medication plans with the school nurse and handle all the required health paperwork. These exams are vital for catching health issues before they become problematic, ensuring your child is in the best shape to start the school year.

Up-to-Date Vaccinations

Make sure your child’s vaccinations are current. This not only includes the standard childhood vaccines but also the flu shot, COVID-19 vaccinations, and possibly the HPV vaccine. Checking in with your pediatrician can help clarify what vaccinations your child needs before heading back to school.

Focus on Mental Health

The transition back to school can be a stressful time for children and teens, potentially triggering anxiety and depression. Observing your child’s behavior for signs of stress and discussing any concerns with health professionals can help manage these issues early. Regular conversations about their feelings can also make a big difference.

Sports Physicals

For children involved in sports, a specific physical examination is necessary to ensure they can safely participate in physical activities. This physical includes assessments of overall health with a focus on cardiac and pulmonary functions, which are crucial for preventing emergencies such as sudden cardiac arrests in young athletes.

Concussion Awareness

Parents and young athletes should be informed about the risks and signs of concussions—common in sports like football, soccer, and cheerleading. Knowing what symptoms to look for and how to respond if a concussion occurs is essential for every parent and coach.

Proper Sleep Habits

Adequate sleep is foundational for academic success and overall health. Establishing a solid bedtime routine that allows for enough sleep is crucial. This might also mean making the bedroom a screen-free zone to avoid the sleep-disrupting effects of blue light from electronics.

Backpack Safety

Choose a lightweight backpack and ensure that it does not exceed 20% of your child’s body weight to avoid back problems. Opting for designs with padded shoulder straps and a waist belt can distribute weight more evenly.

Regular Eye Exams

Vision problems can significantly affect a child’s learning ability. An annual eye exam can detect issues that might impair their ability to see clearly, which is vital for optimal learning. Even if your child has passed a school screening, a comprehensive eye exam by a professional can catch problems that screenings might miss.

Navigating Screen Time and Online Safety

As technology becomes more engrained in learning, managing screen time and understanding online safety becomes more important. Creating a media plan that balances educational and recreational screen time can help prevent sleep disruption and exposure to inappropriate content.

By integrating these health checks into your back-to-school preparations, you can help ensure your child has a healthy, productive year ahead. Remember, readiness for school isn’t just about having the right supplies—it’s also about being mentally and physically prepared for the challenges of a new academic year.

The Importance of Clean School Transportation

(Family Features) Across the country, more than 25 million children ride to school each day in school buses, most of which are powered by diesel and produce harmful emissions known to cause respiratory issues like asthma and bronchitis.

An alternative energy source, like propane, can provide children with a safe, clean and healthy ride to school. As an environmentally friendly and affordable energy source that is abundantly available, propane can help achieve a cleaner today and greener tomorrow for students.

Watch this video to learn more!

Consider these reasons it’s important to clean up student transportation from the experts at the Propane Education & Research Council:

• Propane reduces emissions in exhaust that negatively impact air quality by up to 96% compared to diesel.
• Propane school buses provide a quieter ride than diesel buses, which means it’s easier for drivers to hear potential concerns and students arrive at school calmer and ready to learn.
• Propane warms up quickly, providing a heated cabin for a comfortable ride during colder months.
• Propane is affordable, allowing school districts to replace aging diesel buses three times faster than transitioning to an electric bus fleet.
