Primetime Party Zone

Primetime Party Rentals - North Shore of Boston

I'm planning a Halloween party this year and from past experience I've learned that the best way to keep kids happy, occupied and having fun at a party is to rent games, inflatables, and entertainers. Last year, I hired a company from Peabody Perfect Parties USA. Perfect Parties USA customer service and professional staff were outstanding and all of the equipment was clean and safe. I was very happy with their service and I plan to use them for my personal and corporate parties.

Ride the Hurricane II

Cape Ann Whale Watch cruise is both unforgettable and educational. The kids will learn about whale behavior and migrations patterns and about the local ecology. 

The high-speed Hurricane II wastes no time getting to the whale sites. It's the fastest, most comfortable way to view the ocean's fascinating creatures. Getting you to and from the whale watch in less time means you get to spend more time actually watching the whales.
