Sleepy Hollow Sports Park is the perfect place to hold your company picnic this summer. Employees and families alike will enjoy the wide range of activities offered. You’ll find everything from mini-golf to go-karts and batting cages to a driving range. Sleepy Hollow’s activities are designed to promote team building, intermingling and friendly competition.
We offer three basic meal and activity packages or we will be happy to custom make one for you. Our packages include four hours of activities, a catered meal and soft drinks. We want you to relax and enjoy the day, so we do all the setup, cleanup and cooking.

Step back into the magical time of the Renaissance. All within our European village you will be entertained by jousters, minstrels, comedians, pirates and magicians. You may be chided by trolls and wenches. Meet Queen Catherine, King William and their court. Participate in games of skill and chance, learn to fence, take a ride on a man-powered carnival ride and, or course explore the village shops. Wander through the guild wall and watch potters, glass blowers, blacksmiths and other artisans at work. And no visit is complete without sampling the local fare – from turkey legs and apple dumplings to mead, wine & homemade root beer. Or, choose to organize a banquet in the Feasting Hall. This will be a great day of fun and frivolity!
Two ways to offer this great opportunity to your staff:
- Corporate Discount Days - Set up a corporate day for your employees, promote it to them and we will give them and their families a discounted admission.
- Corporate Outing - Set up an outing for your company and take advantage of a package price including admission, entertainment, beverage and food tickets and game tickets.
