Colors has been serving families for 26 years, we're NOT going anywhere.  We're here to stay. Colors only offers private parties: only one family(+friends) in the building at a time, so from a safety perspective, it's similar to having the party in your own home.


What we changed due to Covid-19:

(1) Max 10 parties PER WEEK, permits extra cleaning.
     
(Colors stays empty 20 hours per day Mon-Fri)
(2) Use small staff of just 2 or 3 people per party + 1 volunteer.
     
(we try not to mix staff, keep same teams together)
(3) Allow cancellations until the day before party, & no deposit req.
     
(cancel for any reason up to day prior to party, no fees)
(4) State-of-the-art UVC disinfecting system.
     
(our disinfection system is explained in detail below)
(5) 7-day rotation of napkins, fork & candle containers.
     
(after each party these items are put away for 7 days)

At the start of Covid19, we did lots of other things as well, such as replacing the chat-phones with models not having keypads making them easier to clean.  Being a Christian Youth Center, we've always provided hand-sanitizer for guests, had our volunteers wear gloves while serving cake and pizza, and of course cleaned well between parties. We're now holding a maximum of just three private parties per day on Saturday, 2 on Sundays, and only one per day Mon-Fri (so we're limiting to just 10 parties per week total).  This allows substantial more time for cleaning as well as more time for any remaining virus to die off. But the big reason for us limiting the number parties is for the UVC disinfecting system we utilize. The new stronger unit we installed runs with the entire building empty of people and even plants. (It's so strong it even kills plants left in the room!) This is a light-based disinfection, similar to a microwave oven in that after the cleaning, nothing is left; so it's totally safe. It only operates when the building is unoccupied. It's not a cheap LED UVC light, it's a professional intense quartz based system that won't even activate when people are in the building.  It can only turn on when the building is empty and the security system is armed. It works by causing lesions in DNA and RNA preventing replication (this is why it can't operate with anything alive in sight).  If you're interested in learning more about it, a link is provided in the bottom left of this webpage.  But continuing, we place the hulla-hoops, maracas, and other difficult to clean items out on the dancefloor while it does its thing.

As it always was and still is, every Colors party is totally private, so from a safety perspective it's like having the party in your own home. Colors was designed 26 years ago around the concept of celebrating a birthday in a similar way as a fun wedding reception bringing families closer together. This is why parties include line dances and activities parents and family members of all ages would want to do together. 
This is especially important to remember in view of the current pandemic.  Most party places are for the kids, and parents "wait it out", not Colors!  The entire premise of Colors was to make a place where parents celebrate "with the kids" and participate with them.   You know how at weddings people say "we never see each other except at weddings and funerals?"   That's why Colors was designed. Everyone has a birthday, and it's a great excuse for the family to get together. We've held over 12,000 parties at Colors so far, and half of them have had more adults present than kids, and we like that!  Family is what we're all about.

Colors is a place that even if you invite just family, 
everyone, not just the kids, has a wonderful experience.
