Rebounderz Indoor Trampoline Arena jumps into Grand Rapids

Company Announces First Michigan Arena

February 08, 2016 // Franchising.com // GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Western Michigan families, prepare to jump for joy! Rebounderz Indoor Trampoline Arena, the rapidly expanding family entertainment center franchise, is coming to town.

Construction is underway at the Rebounderz of Grand Rapids at 7500 Cottonwood Dr. in Jenison, Mich. It is the first arena in Michigan with franchisees Christopher Bouma and Rich Van Dyke at the helm and is set to open February 9.

Rebounderz of Grand Rapids will employ about 60 full- and part-time employees.

“Having kids of our own, we saw a huge opportunity in opening a franchise within the family entertainment business model,” Bouma said. “Rebounderz Indoor Trampoline Arena was the right size, and the company has fantastic leadership with Mark Gurley and Al Paladino.”

The newly renovated building now holds the 54,000-square-foot extreme fun center that is Rebounderz of Grand Rapids. The arena features a 56-bed Combo-Jumper, a Super Dodgeball Jumper, the Rebounderz JumpXtreme Tower, a 4-lane Basketball Slam and a 6-lane Foam Pit – the first 6-lane Foam Pit for Rebounderz.

The arena also features a Jump Pillow for younger jumpers. In addition to these attractions, Rebounderz of Grand Rapids features the largest arcade of any Rebounderz. Additionally, Rebounderz of Grand Rapids plans a custom Ninja Warrior Course and Ninja Warrior Training Course to open in the fall of 2016.

“We are eager for this expansion into Michigan,” said Al Palladino, president of Rebounderz Franchise and Development. “With the colder winter months and spring break quickly approaching, the timing for parents to have a way to keep their kids entertained is fantastic. Grand Rapids families are in for a treat. Michigan is also a terrific state for our arena concept.”

With children of their own, Bouma and Van Dyke are eager to provide families with this new entertainment venue.

“Rebounderz is more than just a trampoline park,” Van Dyke said. “It’s all around fun for the entire family. It is a great bonding experience for parents and kids.”

Both Bouma and Van Dyke hold Bachelor of Arts degrees in business administration from Hope College, while Bouma has an MBA in corporate finance. Prior to opening their Rebounderz franchise, Van Dyke worked at M&K Truck Centers for seven years and Bouma has 20 years of financial and sales experience.

In 2008, there were only five trampoline facilities. Now, despite a global recession, there are nearly 500 trampoline facilities, and only one of those first five hasn’t grown into multiple locations.
