Pumping up the party places
New location in Canyon Country looks to offer fun for families
A new, family-oriented business is opening up just up the street from the Hart school district and the SCV Child & Family Center on Centre Pointe Parkway in Canyon Country.
Local Pump it Up franchisee Gaurav Bhargava said his new business, set for a soft opening for the weekend of Sept. 14, is planning to offer an “end-to-end” party experience for families looking to celebrate a special occasion.
Bhargava, who works at a bank and has two daughters of his own, saw the value in bringing such a business to the Santa Clarita Valley after experiencing countless children’s parties out here with his own family and friends, he said.
His 13,000-squarefoot space near the center of Santa Clarita is under construction, but when completed, it will house several different customizable experiences for kids to enjoy — from a room full of bubbles to a bounce-castle type of space.
The idea is to make party hosting for birthdays, quinceañeras and the like, as easy as possible for parents.
“You just walk in and walk out,” Bhargava said, “and that’s your party.”
The business is still in the process of hiring
ahead of its opening next month, and there will be about 25 jobs created by the new business, he said.
