As the sun set over Homestead last month, the HOA’s central park came alive with glowing ammo and kids darting back and forth. A pop-up gel blaster battle transformed the green space into a neon-lit playground. 

Blast Action Mobile hosted the Glow Ball Battle pop-up event, drawing about 30 kids. Armed with glowing blasters that fired biodegradable water beads, they ducked behind inflatable neon bunkers and pelted newly made opponents with the squishy ammo. 

“It’s a little something extra the kids can look forward to,” he said. “We just want the kids to come out and have a good time.”
