History of Event Central 1987 -

By on March 30, 2009 in Our Company & its Staff

Occasionally I get asked when I got started in the business.  It was May 15, 1987  that we cut the ribbon for the opening of  Taylor Rental of Camp Hill.

At the time we had a mix of home owner equipment, contractor tools, and party goods, each about 1/3 of our overall inventory. The party inventory started out as a 3 frame tents, and 5 Over The Counter Canopies, 3 size tables for a total quantity of 50, and Brown Chairs. Add to that a few fountains, Table Service for 150, and we were in the party rental business.

In 1996, my son Michael at age 14, designed Taylor Rental’s  first website for Taylor Rental under a mentor program arranged at CVHS. 

In 1998, we opened a Harrisburg outlet of Party Central Rentals on Paxton St  and 3 years later, sold off the Taylor Rental Franchise so we could put our exclusive attention to party.

We ultimately rebranded the company to Event Central and relocated to our present location.messiah-homecoming-1b

It seems like yesterday I was Renting Trenchers and Tillers to the homeowners of the West Shore, many of whom continue to be steady customers 22 years later.   And 13 years after his first web page, Michael is in charge of On-Line Content (Web Development)  for the Florida market for Clear Channel Radio.
