Treehouse Kids Club. Birthdays at the Treehouse, 1730 S. 4th Ave., are fun for everyone and easy for mom and dad. The club is normally an hourly,

two hours of fun for up to 15 kids. For more kids, the cost is $5 extra per child. The club’s tables, chairs and all
toys are available for use, and parents only need to bring decorations, the cake and food and drinks. Two employees will be on hand to
help with “fun and exciting activities” such as games and crafts. They will also help with set-up and clean-up. The club has an “open” design
with plenty of room for the kids to have a good time and no walls so parents can watch all the fun activities. For more information, go to
www.treehouse.com or contact the Treehouse at 783-TREE (8733). Another option for families with
