Every park is a little bit different.  Generally most parks require that the party rental company add them as an additional insured.  This is intended to protect the park from liability if there is an injury resulting from the misuse of the product.  It is best to contact the park directly and ask them what their process is.

When planning to have an event at a park, it will be in your best interest to schedule in one month or more in advance.  This will save you a lot of stress.  Some parks will require you to pay a fee.  The fee may range from $25 or more.  You will also need to find out if the park has a power source.  Most inflatables require a minimum of 1 – 110 outlet.  If the park does not have a power source, you will have to provide a generator or rent a generator from the party rental company.  I have included a list of websites Houston, Harris County, and Galveston County Parks below.

Generally inflatable obstacle courses can be broken down into those that are designed for large events and those that are designed for backyard parties.  If one is going to have an event with a large number of participants, an obstacle course is an ideal choice.  Participants will enter the obstacle course and exit fairly quickly.  This reduces long lines.  Most obstacle courses are designed to have two participants racing to see whom can meet all of the challenges and finish first.  Keep in mind, that an obstacle course can be designed for large events and still be used in a backyard party provided there is enough room. 

At GBAIX Moonwalks and Party Rentals, LLC, in addition to having backyard obstacle courses we also have courses that are designed for large events.   The Jurrassic Obstacle Course features a 35 ft by 28 ft obstacle course with a 20 ft slide.  Although this unit is ideal for large events, it can be used in a backyard party.
