Walking into Rocket Fizz was like being teleported back in time.  Walls were lined with every flavor of soda pop you could imagine in old fashioned glass bottles looking delectable in the summer heat.  Strewn about in a curated fashion were cardboard cutouts of iconic movie characters, retro posters, tin signs, and quite literally any candy you could imagine.  We walked into this store on a whim, being drawn in by the electric energy begging us to be children once more, and were not disappointed. It’s a fun place to swing by even if you don’t want to load up on sugar.  Although, it’s hard to resist maybe just one treat.

Emily Coleman
Emily Coleman is a Jersey girl born and raised who caught the outdoor bug upon moving to Vermont to pursue a degree in Adventure Education and Environmental Studies from Green Mountain College. She spent most of her years before college deeply entrenched in the world of competitive cheerleading before discovering a passion for outdoor sports including mountain biking, white water kayaking, bikepacking, backpacking, slacklining, rock climbing, and skiing. Having been surrounded by children her entire life in her mother's daycare, she always had a strong affinity for kids. She moved to the mountains of Jackson Hole after graduating to coach for the local Kayak Club during the summers and nanny in the winters. Becoming a part of the Happy Active Family team felt like the perfect collision of her passion for building strong community bonds and encouraging an outdoor lifestyle.
