"We have extra LED changing color lights, laser lights, sequence lighting and all different colors in the park," said business operations manager, Karen O'Halloran. "We have music, and each participant receives glow attire, such as an LED necklace for even more of an experience." For instance, this 4th of July, guests received light up red, white and blue wigs to wear as they swung from the trees.
The Glow Climb was introduced to the Bridgeport park two years ago and has quickly developed a following.
O'Halloran has noticed the climbs have become a hit with teenagers and young adults looking for a new way to spend their Friday evenings. "It's an awesome idea for a date night, as opposed to the the traditional movies or bowling," she said.
