Hire the Grinch – Impersonator

October 31st, 2008

Professional Grinch Impersonations are an absolutely hilarious solution to any party or gathering which you may be planning. Most popular during the Holiday Event season, our Grinch Impersonators are full on Funny!

There is nothing like having a fuzzy green guest who doesn’t really want to be at your party on the guest list. Your party will be the talk of the town when people interact with him, and he tells them of his goals this Christmas.

Our Grinch impersonators can play an unhappy Grinch, or they can play a nice “Reformed Grinch” who is currently attending a 12 step program to better himself and make himself a more “like able” guy.

For a rousing performance to meet and greet your guests as they arrive, show up “late”, or even as a person who hands out gifts to your coworkers- a Grinch impersonator is the ideal performer to have at your event!

The party center boasts a huge play arena filled with inflatable rides and games for kids birthday parties! But that is not all- it is also the ideal location to host your upcoming corporate event, fundraiser, or any type of event. The inflatables roll up- and the facility can be transformed into any theme to fit your needs! They have hosted weddings, casino nights, western themed events, and even school dances at their Portland party place.

Party Idea #2 – School Gyms –

Educational institutions are excellent venues to hold gatherings. In their primary design these types of places were made to accommodate large groups of people.

Finding a public or private school which offers rentals of their facility is a great way to find the ideal rainy season event venue. Check out everything from elementary schools to middle schools, high schools, and even colleges!

We are going Shopping!

October 31st, 2008

Can we pick up anything for you?

Every year we spend the month of November evaluating our current inventory, and deciding what items need replacing, refurbished, etc… we also take this time to consider what items are currently lacking from our inventory.

We would love feedback from our clients (ie… you!) regarding services and rental items which you would prefer to get through us!

Maybe there is something you saw at an event somewhere, or in a catalog, online, or elsewhere. Maybe you are currently acquiring this item through another vendor and would prefer to get it through us! Whatever the case, we are interested in your feedback!

Please take some time to consider, and if anything pops into your head- email us

We appreciate your time, and look forward to working with you again soon!


Holiday Party Planning on a Budget!

October 6th, 2008

The company holiday party is a great chance to share with your colleagues and celebrate the past year. This year it seems that many companies are beginning to cut back on the holiday event budget due to the current state of the US economy. Many employers are holding back on releasing budget details for their holiday parties until they see the stock market start to stabilize, and until they see what happens in America after the recent bailout plan. The results of the upcoming election are also going to be used by some company executives to determine the future of the company holiday party.

For those loyal staff members and employers who love the holidays- this does not have to be the end of the holiday party! There are plenty of low budget ways for event planners to put together a holiday party which will lessen it’s blow on the companies pocket book.

Examining the Holiday Party Budget

The best way to make budget cuts is by looking at the budget. So if you can, find out as much as you can about last years and preceding years company parties to determine what the budget has been in the past. At this time look and see if there are ways you could cut back on expenses.

Here are some examples of places to cut holiday party budgets:

Food – Catering: In years past, maybe you have had a nice fancy sit down catered meal for all your company members. If this is the case you have a great place to free up some budget. simply taking your holiday event and changing it into a less formal event will save a fortune. A “cocktail party” type of atmosphere is usually very successful and offers a casual elegance which is popular among crowds.

The Bar: If you have had a bar in the past, and typically just picked up the tab, a very simple change can save you big bucks. Moving to a “drink ticket” system can save you a fortune. Decide how many drinks you will offer each guest, and when they have consumed that number- they can always move to a no host bar.

Time of Day: Holding you event in the morning can free up a large amount of budget, offering you great savings on food and beverage. A simple pastries and coffee service can be used and you can incorporate all kinds of fun games, entertainers, and activities for the crowd to make the atmosphere more festive.

Also- this guide of holiday party games and holiday party ideas is a great place to look for new alternatives to past company parties!
