FAMILY & OUTDOORS

Major indoor family adventure center

Develop a 65,000-square-foot family adventure center with climbing, ninja activities, courts, younger-child play and party rooms.

Indoor recreation for several ages in one destination

The proposed center brings active recreation for children and teens into one indoor building, with space for parents to watch, eat or participate. Climbing, ninja activities, interactive play and flexible courts form the initial program. Separate younger-child areas and quieter sessions broaden access across ages and needs.

At approximately 65,000 square feet, this is a substantial commercial undertaking. Its activity mix must complement the YMCA, existing attractions and Umpqua Fun’s separately announced project. The test is repeat attendance at workable prices, supported by an operator capable of staffing, maintaining and supervising the full facility.

Proposed format and services

Families would enter a shared reception and seating area, with clear routes to the different activities. Party rooms, instruction, food and accessible participation are included in the brief. Supervision and sightlines should be designed with the equipment, and quieter sessions should have a clear operating schedule.

  • Ninja and active-play zones
  • Climbing and bouldering with instruction
  • Flexible courts and interactive games
  • Quiet/sensory sessions and accessible participation
  • Party rooms, healthy food and family seating

The climbing, ninja, play and court activities would share one building, with common party rooms, food and seating.

Development sequence

Have an experienced attraction operator test attendance, pricing and the proposed activity mix. In parallel, resolve permitted uses, airport compatibility, access and utilities at the candidate site. Compare new construction with reuse before choosing the property and committing to the larger capital cost.

Requirements to resolve

Property, operating and approval conditions.

  • The center would need an experienced operator and an activity mix distinct enough to attract repeat visits.
  • The site would need the required approvals, compatible airport conditions, access and utilities, with finances that can withstand quieter attendance.

INFORM THE DEMAND RESEARCH

Describe how you would use it.

Which activities would make your family return, how far would you travel, and what would you consider a fair price for an afternoon or a membership?

Include your community, likely frequency of visits and the services or products you would buy. These details help identify which proposals need closer study.

Sources and current status

Read the information behind this idea.

F1 is a privately owned candidate parcel. The approximately 65,000 sq ft attraction is a new proposal. Umpqua Fun has separately announced an 18,000 sq ft center for December 2026; no operator or investor commitment to this larger center is confirmed.
