Why Custom-Made Tents Should be on Your School Supply List This Year

Share:

With a new school year fast approaching, a custom-made tent may just be the most important item on your supply list. Here’s why.

The smell of freshly sharpened pencils and new notebooks may be in the air, but the return to school means more than just homework and late-night study sessions. It also means the start of several sports seasons, fundraisers, clubs, and endless opportunities to connect with new faces and new opportunities.  Now, more than ever, schools and universities of all levels are using custom-made tents and other branding accessories to communicate with students, families, and faculty, and show their school spirit.

Here are a few of the ways our custom-made tents are being used this back-to-school season, both on and off campus. You may just find that a personalized tent may be the most important school supply on your list.

Custom-Made Tents for Sporting Events

The most obvious use for custom-made tents as we prepare for the back-to-school season is for use at sporting events. Whether the fall sports season has you out on the field for cross country or football, or in the gym for the latest volleyball win, our tents provide shelter for fans and players alike while also providing a convenient “home base” for ticket sales, refreshment distribution, and more. Our custom-made tents provide such easy setup and take down that no matter where the game may be, you can represent your team’s colors, mascot, and school name directly on your canopy or tent.

(Pro Tip: Really feeling the school spirit? Consider fun graphic applications like yard signs or foam board pictures to take your support to the next level.)

The Right Canopy for Your Homecoming Celebration

Rain or shine, your homecoming court needs a place to be crowned in style and custom-made tents provide the perfect solution. Along with the big dance, our custom tents are ideal for prizes and raffles, watching the game, or drawing attention to the latest club or organization. Homecoming provides an opportunity for students old and new to get into the celebratory spirit, and what better way to do so than with branded accessories that show your school spirit?

(Pro tip: Not enough room for a custom-made tent in your school gymnasium or auditorium? A wide variety of branding tools or banners provide a useful middle ground to get custom messaging out when space is limited.)

Fundraisers for School Clubs

The start of a new school year comes with its fair share of late summer fundraisers. For club leaders, students, or helpful parents looking for ways to help your student shine, custom-made tents provide the ideal resource for money-making events. Whether you are hosting the bake sale of the century, or providing a team captain-led car wash, custom-made tents and canopies provide you with versatile opportunities to support your team.

(Pro tip: Hosting your fundraiser off campus? Make sure your team’s mascot or team name is prominently displayed so bystanders know exactly who and what they are supporting! They may just throw in an extra tip.)

Making the Most out of Your Custom-Made Tents

If you are considering a custom-made tent as a resource for the upcoming school year, we look forward to supporting you as you choose the custom-made tent or canopy that represents your school and fulfills various needs. With the energy, anticipation, and endless possibility the start of a new school year brings, our team can’t wait to see how you will make use of your new branded accessory.
