"Meet the Owners"

Hi! Thanks for checking out our website!  Ever wonder why we started this business?  My husband and I started this business with your children in mind.  We wanted to bring something to this area that would provide clean, family fun entertainment without having to drive a long distance to get there.  We have three children of our own (they are basically grown now) and knew how important it was to find something the whole family could enjoy in a clean and safe environment.

Ryan was a police officer and I am a registered nurse in the emergency department.  Ryan was also a volunteer firefighter and was the chairman of a festival for several years.  The experience working with inflatable companies for the festival and attending birthday parties at other kid's establishments over the years made us want to bring the excitement to the area for our kids and other kids in the area.

In 2010, Ryan founded The Caswell Bounce House.  We had an indoor location in Yanceyville and did outdoor rentals as well.  Our youngest son, was just 18 months old when we opened.  We stayed very busy between our full time jobs, 3 kids, and running the bounce house.  

After 7 years, we decided to close the indoor store and concentrate on rentals and delivering the FUN to you!  We decided it was best for our kids to get some time back instead of being at the store all the time.  We were very thankful that we had closed the store prior to the COVID outbreak when many small businesses couldn't survive.

After the busy summer of 2021 and everyone partying at home due to COVID, Ryan decided to leave the police department.  He loved being a police officer but law enforcement has changed over the years and isn't what it used to be.  His true passion was this business and he had worked so hard to build it and wanted it to continue to grow.  A couple months later he was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer.

We really thought we were going to have to sell the company because there was no way Ryan could continue to move heavy inflatables around while receiving such hard chemo.  However, as soon as we told our kids they said "We aren't selling.  Daddy built this for us and we are going to continue it."  So, for the last 2 years they have done just that.  We have grown and have even added a "Sister company" Carolina Foam Parties.

Ryan fought hard for almost 2 years and never gave up the fight.  Our faith has carried us through and we know he is now watching over us!  He cared so much about customer service and would always tell the kids to take care of his customers.  He would often ride with them just to make sure they were doing things right and to talk to customers.  He loved to talk!

To all our customers over the last 14 years, thank you for your support of our family business and choosing us for your rental needs. 

Ryan's dream of owning his own business only came true because of each of you that trusted us to deliver the FUN to your events.

We have watched so many kids grow and have been honored to be a part of so many birthday parties over the years. 

Many of you have celebrated with us year after year and we appreciate each of you!

To our new customers, we promise to give you a great experience!  Our kids have basically been doing this their entire life!
