Frequently Asked Questions: School & District Event Rentals
Can you handle a school-wide field day?
Yes, Greysons supplies obstacle courses, interactives, and trained staff to keep large groups of students moving through stations.
FULL ANSWER
Field days run best when several attractions operate at once, so lines stay short. Pair an obstacle course with a dunk tank for a staff-versus-student finish. Call (225) 436-6520 with your date and expected headcount.
Do you provide a certificate of insurance for our school district?
Yes, Greysons provides certificates of insurance on request and can name your school or district as additional insured.
FULL ANSWER
Send us your school or district name and any wording your risk office requires. Greysons Events & Entertainment is fully insured. See our insurance and compliance page for safety details.

Pricing depends on the equipment and distance, and delivery is $2.75 per mile from our Gonzales shop.
FULL ANSWER
Call (225) 436-6520 with your date, school address, and expected crowd for a quote. We build the quote around the equipment and staff you choose. Browse combo units and slides to see what we deliver.
Can you set up on a school field or playground?
Yes, with school approval, we anchor using water ballast and weights, so no stakes are driven into the field.

How far ahead should a PTO book a school carnival?
Book as soon as your date is set, because large events need equipment and crew lined up early.

What equipment works for a school fun day?
Obstacle courses, inflatable mazes, combo units, slides, and games suit fun days because they handle many children at once.
FULL ANSWER
Fun days run best with a mix of active and relaxed stations. Add combo units for younger students and games for quieter play. Our event staff can run each station.
