Renting An Inflatable Obstaccle Course For Your Next Party

By Rebecca Collins


There is a big event coming up on your calendar and you may be in charge of arranging all of the various activities. You are interested in something that keeps everyone moving and involved and are considering renting an inflatable obstacle course for the enjoyment of all.

You can rent this structure for all types of events including reunions, picnics, birthday parties, employee parties, and fundraisers. You can raise money by charging for each run through the course. The funds raised can also help pay for prizes for race winners.

To be able to rent this structure at all, you must have a proper area to set it up in. What is needed is a large, flat grassy area. Before renting, be sure to get the dimensions of this large structure to ensure that you do have room for it. You may even have an indoor space that is suitable. Remember: extra care would need to be taken to make sure small ones do not tumble over the side onto a hard surface. If a huge carpeted area is available, so much the better.

The best part of renting this type of activity is that you can easily turn it into a competitive game. Purchase or borrow a few stopwatches so you can time the individuals who are making their way through this maze. Designate specific individuals to be timekeepers. If you want to be even more diligent, make vests with numbers on them for the contestants to wear so that they can be tracked more easily. Depending on the number of participants, arrange for several heats and then have the winners of the heats compete against each other at the end.

You can come up with fun and unique prizes for all the winners. Arrange for medallions and/or small trophies to be presented a the end of the festivities. Encourage different work departments to compete. For the younger set, candy and toy prize are always fun and welcome additions.

It is very important to closely monitor any children who participate in activities on this structure. They could very easily get trampled in the rush or slip down through the sides to the floor. If you have an extremely large group tha is expected to enjoy this activity, it may be best to hire a few babysitters to keep an eye on younger participants. Or you may wish to be proactive by hiring an additional moon bounce for the little ones. It could be well worth the extra expense.

If the course is a rousing success, you may wish to add other components such as magicians, clowns, a dunking booth, miniature carnival rides, a petting zoo, and maybe even pony rides or train rides. Thre are many options to select from that will help make your event more memorable and successful. Be careful, if you are too successful at these arrangements, you may find yourself in charge of them for many years to come.

Use a carnival theme to really set the stage for your event. INclude a variety of activities and games for attendees. Don't forget to include food booths, music, and challenges such as ring tosses, basketball free-throw competitions, and beanbag tosses. This is a really unique way to reward employees, celebrate a special occasion or raise money for a good cause.
