As communities across the mid-Atlantic region increasingly embrace fall and winter festivals and outdoor celebrations, 3 Monkeys Inflatables has expanded its seasonal inventory while maintaining strict adherence to state safety regulations. The family-owned company, operated by Corsner Entertainment Inc., reports a significant shift in how schools, municipalities, and organizations approach year-round event planning.
Founded nearly two decades ago by the Corsner family, the company now operates as a multi-generational business with the second generation taking on leadership roles. What began as a small operation with a few bounce houses has evolved into a fully licensed and insured event rental company serving Pennsylvania, Maryland, and occasionally neighboring states, such as New Jersey.
Unlike many entertainment rental companies, 3 Monkeys Inflatables maintains full licensing with both the Pennsylvania and Maryland Departments of Agriculture Ride Safety Division. The company currently employs seven state-licensed ride inspectors certified through the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture's Division of Amusement Rides and Attractions, ensuring every piece of equipment meets or exceeds stringent state safety requirements.
"We're seeing communities become more aware of the importance of working with properly licensed and insured entertainment providers," said Pamela Corsner, Owner of Corsner Entertainment Inc. and a certified ride inspector herself. "What used to be primarily spring and summer activities has evolved into year-round celebrations, and event organizers are discovering that with properly maintained equipment and trained staff, outdoor events can be just as successful in cooler months."
All equipment undergoes monthly inspections and additional state-mandated inspections at public events. The company adheres to ASTM F24 standards and ASTM F2374 specifications for inflatable amusement devices, following protocols established in Pennsylvania ride safety regulations. Beyond state requirements, 3 Monkeys Inflatables maintains $2 million in general liability insurance coverage, workers' compensation policies, and commercial auto insurance to protect staff, equipment, and customers.
Recognizing that safety extends beyond equipment maintenance, the company has developed extensive customer training resources, including video tutorials, safety checklists, and troubleshooting guides. These materials cover proper monitoring procedures, emergency evacuation protocols, and volunteer attendant training for organizations hosting their own events.
"Education is just as important as inspection," Corsner noted. "We provide customers with the knowledge they need to operate equipment safely, recognize potential issues, and respond appropriately if challenges arise during their events."
The trend toward year-round community programming has prompted the company to develop specialized offerings that work effectively across various weather conditions and venue types. Current inventory supports events ranging from traditional harvest festivals and Halloween celebrations to winter carnivals, holiday corporate gatherings, and early spring community fairs.
Rock climbing walls and mechanical bull riding experiences have become staples at both indoor venues and weatherproof outdoor festivals. Interactive attractions like portable axe-throwing stations, zorb ball activities, and VR roller coaster experiences provide unique entertainment options for event planners seeking differentiated programming. Carnival rides and amusements, including inflatable bumper cars and electric trackless train rentals with customizable seasonal theming, have proven versatile across different event types.
The inflatable corn maze has emerged as a particularly popular fall attraction, while portable zip line installations provide adventure elements adaptable to both indoor and outdoor spaces. For venues requiring weather protection, comprehensive event infrastructure including tent rentals, tables, and chairs ensures events can proceed regardless of conditions.
Beyond entertainment, the company reports increased interest in educational programming, particularly drunk and distracted driving awareness packages that schools and community organizations incorporate into safety initiatives. Casino party packages have gained traction for corporate team-building events and fundraisers, offering complete entertainment solutions with professional-grade equipment. Game show experiences, digital video gaming stations, and photo booth rentals provide additional options for corporate events and community celebrations, while holiday-themed packages help organizations create cohesive seasonal experiences.
The expansion of year-round event programming carries broader implications for community engagement throughout Central Pennsylvania and Northern Maryland. According to event planning industry research, communities hosting regular seasonal festivals report increased local economic activity and stronger community connections.
"Licensed and insured event rentals have become essential infrastructure for how communities bring people together safely," Corsner explained. "Whether it's a school celebrating the fall season, a municipality hosting a winter carnival, or a corporation planning a holiday party, these gatherings create meaningful experiences that strengthen our regional communities while maintaining the safety standards that protect participants."
