Escape the Dorm: What to do in Kennesaw

With spring semester in full swing, students are immersed in homework, lectures, and various school-related activities and for some, full- or part-time employment. With such a strenuous workload, many students often just want a break.

The Brunswick Zone XL and Monster Mini Golf are two great choices. Brunswick Zone XL, formerly, US Play, has been a staple in the Kennesaw area since 1997. Located off Barrett Parkway, Brunswick Zone XL offers bowling, laser tag, billiards, arcade games and food.

In addition, Brunswick Zone XL has specific nights that KSU students frequent because of the great deals.

“Our most popular nights for KSU students are Mondays, Wednesdays and Sundays due to the cost-friendly activities,” said Brunswick Zone XL General Manager Jim Woodard.

On Mondays, students take advantage of “Buck ‘N Bowl” from 9 p.m.-1 a.m. with $1 games and hot dogs. Wednesdays from 9 p.m. to close, customers experience “All You Can Play” and receive unlimited bowling, shoe rental and live music from a DJ for $9.99. And finally, Brunswick’s most popular night, “Sizzlin’ Sundays!”

On Sunday nights starting at 8 p.m., students can take advantage of laser tag, billiards, cosmic bowling and shoe rental and receive a $5 game card all for $9.99.

Monster Mini Golf, located off Chastain Meadows Parkway, boasts mini golf with a twist: Offering 18 holes of play amid various monster-like images, Monster Mini Golf also has arcade games and pool tables readily available for customers who do not mind having a “spook-tacular” time.

Opened in October 2007, Monster Mini Golf owners Anna and Amir Samimi are happy to have KSU students in their establishment. “We love the college crowd,” stated Anna Samimi, “They are a lot of fun, always full of energy.”Though KSU students do not have a specific promotional night at Monster Mini Golf, they are welcome to show their student ID to receive $2 off a round of golf.
