Bubble Tower Adds Clean Fun To Any Event FARM HOME Novelty Items Bubbles aren’t just for kids Bill Coleman proves that every time he takes his BubbleYou®Bubble Tower to a fair town celebration or themed event The 14-ft tall bubble machine inspires happy impromptu fun popping bubbles or catching clusters – whether you are 2 or 92
It’s such a simple activity that it usually turns out to be more popular than organizers expect “I was honestly a bit surprised by just how popular it was ” wrote one organizer for the Sweetwater County Fair in Rock Springs Wyo
Based in Denver Colo Coleman’s four bubble towers have become the fastest growing part of his entertainment business since he built his first tower in 2004 for a bubble festival in Manitou Springs Colo
Self-powered by a solar panel the tower goes through 5 to 10 gal of water a day making everything from ping-pong ball clusters the size of bushel baskets to basketball size bubbles At night the bubbles twinkle in front of the tower’s LED lights
Organizers or sponsors pay a fee for the tower $225/hour with a 3-hour minimum or at discounted day or weekly rates so that it’s a free activity for attendees The tower makes a great promotion tool Coleman adds when sponsors provide a banner for the tower
Most of his team’s travels are within 1 000 miles of Denver but they will go anywhere For example one team traveled as far as Anchorage Alaska when event organizers agreed to transport the tower and other equipment
In addition to the tower Coleman has a gaggle of other entertainment ideas – including 10-ft tall dancing Christmas trees oversized penguins in tuxedos giant puppets and Coleman’s signature Stretch the 9-ft Clown featured in FARM SHOW’s Vol 32 No 2
At 59 Coleman a former drywall taper and window washer admits he started his second childhood about 15 years ago Stretch got him started walking tall in parades and the bubble towers continue the outdoor entertainment fun
“If you want to have fun give us a call or check out our website ” he says
