Masters Week in the area centers on golf.
But it is spring break for Columbia County students, who want to have some fun on their reprieve from school.
Numerous county businesses are offering Masters Week specials to help the youngsters find something to do.
Adventure Crossing is running "Masters is Spring Break in Augusta" specials through April 12 at the family and sports entertainment park at 4350 Wheeler Road.
For $12, visitors can purchase the Unlimited Outside Ride Pass, which includes an hour of unlimited rides on the three go-kart tracks, midway rides and two miniature golf courses. A second hour costs $6. Anyone above age 7 can add on a 30-minute/four-game session of laser tag for $8. The park also includes batting cages and an indoor arcade.
Managing partner Ed Smith said the lower prices and package deals are something park owners intend to keep at least through the end of the year.
"Through these tough economic times, we're going to continue to put forward real value packages for people," Smith said. "People, even in tough times, they want to have fun. They deserve to be able to get out with their families, have a good time and kind of put the troubles of the world aside for a few hours."
The park is open 4-9 p.m. Monday-Thursday; 4 p.m. to midnight Friday; 10 a.m. to midnight Saturday; and noon to 9 p.m. Sunday.
