How to Plan a School Field Day in Augusta, GA
Field day is one of the most anticipated days of the school year - and one of the more logistically demanding for teachers and PTA volunteers. Between rotating hundreds of students through stations, keeping equipment age-appropriate, and satisfying the school's insurance requirements, there's a lot to plan. Here's how Augusta-area schools put together a field day that runs smoothly from first bell to last.
Start With Your Station Layout
Most field days rotate grade levels or classes through a series of stations over the course of the day rather than opening everything to everyone at once. Map out your field or playground space first, then decide how many stations you can realistically fit with room for kids to line up and move safely between them.
Choose Commercial-Grade, Insured Equipment
School events mean continuous use by large groups all day, so residential-grade inflatables aren't built for the wear. Our Event Certified category is designed specifically for schools, churches, and nonprofits - commercial-grade, fully insured, and rated for bigger crowds and longer run times. Field day favorites include the All Star Obstacle ($430) for a timed relay station, the Game Day Challenge ($275), and the Extreme Challenge Action Pack ($975) if you want one big centerpiece attraction for the whole day.
Add Rotating Game Stations
Smaller games work well as timed stations that classes rotate through in 10-15 minute blocks. The Ultimate Game Zone ($215) is our most-requested package for field days - it bundles five interactive games (Double Fun, Giant Jenga, Giant Connect 4, and an Inflatable Saturn Toss) into one setup so kids stay engaged without needing separate deliveries. Want a high-energy station? A Dunk Tank ($300) is always a field day favorite, especially if teachers or staff volunteer to sit in the tank.
Plan a Home Base for Staff and Supplies
Set up a shaded home base with tables for water stations, first aid, and staff check-in. Our Tables & Chairs packages range from the Round Table Community Package (40 chairs, $225) to the All Star Community Event Package (100 chairs, $460) depending on how many staff and volunteers you're supporting. Use our seating guide to match a package to your staff and volunteer count.
Confirm Insurance Before You Book
Most schools require a certificate of insurance on file before any outside vendor sets up on campus. All Star Jumpers is fully insured and can provide a certificate of insurance for your school office - just request it when you book so it's ready in time for facilities approval.
Sample Field Day Setup
Single grade level (60-100 students): The Ultimate Game Zone ($215) + Giant Connect Four ($55) = $270
Whole-school event (300+ students, rotating stations): All Star Obstacle ($430) + The Ultimate Game Zone ($215) + Dunk Tank ($300) + All Star Community Event Package ($460) = $1,405
Every rental includes delivery, setup, and takedown, so your teachers and volunteers can focus on running stations instead of assembling equipment.
Timing and Booking
Spring field days (April and May) are our busiest season for schools, so we recommend booking at least 4-6 weeks ahead to lock in your date and preferred equipment. Weekday morning delivery is standard for school events - let us know your school's start time when you book.
