Kids Market Tumbles Up with the Opening of Rolly Pollies Orchard Park, NY

Austin, TX (PRWEB) October 13, 2008 -- Running, jumping, swinging, singing and smiling ... That was the scene today as the kids market in Orchard Park, NY tumbled forward (and backwards!) with the opening of its own Rolly Pollies children's gymnastics, music, creative arts and birthday party center for kids 6 months through 8 years old.

The second location to open in the Western New York region in the last 3 years, owners and Buffalo natives, Jim and Danielle Fleckenstein plan to bring the same energy, enthusiasm and customer service that has been the hallmark of their first location in East Amherst.

"The overwhelming positive response we received from the children and parents in East Amherst made it an easy decision for us to open more locations in the area," says owner Danielle Fleckenstein. "Parents in Western New York are always looking for safe, clean, fun yet educational outlets for their kids. We have exceptional teachers and programs designed to stimulate not only the physical and mental well-being of their children but also the social aspect as well. We are eager to open our Rolly Pollies in Orchard Park and make a difference in the lives of a whole new set of kids."

"Supported by diverse, age-appropriate equipment including a rock wall, 30-foot trampoline, gymnastics and climbing equipment, a 6000 foam block pit with a cargo net, rope swings, rings and a zipline, plus a great bounce house, Rolly Pollies' programs make us the premier children's gym in our region," says co-owner Jim Fleckenstein. Jim also adds, "Not many businesses have a mission statement, but we live ours everyday: To develop children physically, intellectually and socially in order to build the self-esteem and confidence needed for a healthy and successful life."

The Austin, Texas based Rolly Pollies franchise, founded by U.S. Naval Academy graduates Joe Dondero and John Mann, is known for its age appropriate and purpose-driven curricula in fitness, music, and art, as well as the best birthday parties and camps for children 6 months through 8 years of age.

"Over the last 3 years, Jim and Danielle have developed a reputation in the Western New York area for exceptional service and for keeping their focus on what is most important ... their student's development. The positive buzz surrounding them and the opening of Rolly Pollies Orchard Park can best be seen by the awesome support of the community and by how quickly their classes are filling up," says franchise co-founder John Mann. Franchise co-founder Joe Dondero adds, "Even in a down economy, parents still spend money on their children, but most will prioritize activities that have a purpose and that will add value to their children's lives. So we are delighted to see Rolly Pollies Orchard Park, NY open and operating at such a high level and we look forward to our future openings in Crofton, Maryland and Texas in the near future."

Rolly Pollies currently has franchises in New York, Arizona, Florida, Maryland, Minnesota, North Carolina, South Carolina and more locations are slated to open in 2009.
