Backyard Celebrations: How to Host Safely

As we head towards the end of summer, it’s clear that the pandemic has made a lasting impact on the way and our abilities to hold certain types of events and uphold a lot of our own traditions this year. With the recommendations on social distancing, events and other large gatherings have been curtailed in an effort to flatten the curve and limit the amount of close contact between groups of people. For some, that’s meant turning to the backyard as a safe place to celebrate!

At Tent Renters’ Supply, we have adapted to this rapid change by providing guidance as well as manufacturing abilities for emergency, shelter, and other kinds of tents to help hospitals, restaurants, schools, and all other kinds of organizations stay open. 

Our products help by providing solutions so that businesses can increase their capacity by moving outdoors. Here are some safety tips from our team:

Etiquette is Safety

Practicing proper etiquette doesn’t just make you polite anymore – it makes us all safer. Like how the WHO mandates, be sure to provide all necessary supplies – hand hygiene stations, hand sanitizer or soap and water, tissues, bins, distance markers, masks (in accordance with local recommendations), and let guests know where everything is located.

The 6-foot Rule

If you are holding an outdoor event, be sure that everyone understands that they must remain 6 feet apart from each other. Encourage and enforce the use of facemasks unless guests are safely seated and eating or drinking. The benefit of an outdoor celebration is that open, airy spaces are safer than gathering indoors. You can also consider staggering the arrival and departure time of guests so that crowding does not occur.

Invest in a Quality Tent

Tents provide shelter from the elements as well as provides a safe, cost-effective solution to entertaining your guests outside of an enclosed building. With the ability to accommodate a number of sizes, and the washable material of the vinyl material makes it an ideal part of your outdoor event arsenal.
