"The folks at Lasertron run a First Class operation and conference. The material covered was very helpful in evaluating a future Laser Tag attraction."- Brad Robinson, President, Richmond Ice Zone On the first evening, LASERTRON elaborately transformed their birthday party area into a fine dining experience. Candles, mood lighting, a simulated beach was projected onto a projector screen, and beautifully decorated tables gave the attendees a sampling of how easily the space could be utilized for corporate dining functions and special events. The food was cooked on site, and wine and beer were served which is now offered at the LASERTRON center. After a satisfying dinner everyone was given the opportunity to play in both of LASERTRON's arenas. The "Sport Arena" which is a 6,800 square foot single-level arena and offers players a team game format with their "Deactivator" and "Stealth" CHIP's modes and their newest 3,260 square foot multi-level "Adventure Arena" which allowed players to utilize LASERTRON's newest LT-11 game system. Prizes were given out at the end of the conference including 4 new LASERTRON LT-11 vests valued at over $10,000! Two of the vests were won by an existing client and 2 were won by a prospective attendee. Other winners received IALEI manuals, cases of fog fluid and score sheets.
