After being shuttered for almost a year due to pandemic restrictions, Mountasia Family Fun Center has been purchased by MB2 Group. Michael Fleming, former general managing partner at Mountasia, announced that the center was looking for a buyer in September, calling it a “Hail Mary” attempt to keep its doors open. Though it is still closed now, Chris Brooks, a Saugus resident and co-owner of the MB2 go-kart racing facility in Sylmar, purchased the center in October and already has started upgrading attractions and expanding Mountasia, according to Fleming. “It was exciting that we found someone that wants to carry on the legacy of Mountasia,” Fleming said. “They’re planning a lot of great things for it, and I’m really happy for the community that Chris is taking it over. I think the community as a whole is, once it reopens, they’re going to be really impressed.”
