There's Still Time to Save $200 on Foundations Entertainment University
Businesses don't plan to fail. They fail to plan! That's the slogan of Foundations Entertainment University to be held Feb. 3-5 in Atlanta, Georgia. The intensive three-day training session teaches attendees the secrets of successfully planning, designing, developing, and operating new or renovated location-based entertainment facilities. The curriculum applies to anything and everything from an undersized game room that complements a single anchor facility (bowling, skating, miniature golf...) to family entertainment centers of all sizes, to a multi-million dollar stand-alone indoor/outdoor pocket theme park. In addition to comprehensive classroom sessions, Foundations students will also enjoy the opportunity to network and brainstorm with the seminar leaders and leading suppliers during meals and in relaxed after-hours sessions.

The teaching roster of Foundations reads like a Who's Who of the location-based entertainment industry. Together, the five instructors have more than 100 years of combined experience in their fields. They are:
- Randy White of White Hutchinson Leisure & Learning Group
- Frank Seninsky of Alpha Omega Amusements
- Jerry Merola of Amusement Entertainment Management
- Alan Fluke of FunWerks, Inc.
- Peter Olesen of Peter F. Olesen & Associates
"WOW!!! Such talent under one roof giving presentations and tips about the industry. Had I gone into business without this seminar, I would have been out of business in six months. Thank you for providing such great tools, resources, and insight on how to run a successful business in this industry."
Ahmad Khan, Facility Developer, Wayne, Illinois
