InTents June/July 2021 - 19

The pandemic's impact
When sporting and social events
screeched to a halt in 2020, the impact
on business was harsh. All Tailgate Guys
locations were inactive throughout 2020
and PRE's operations were signiicantly
limited. But the teams did a pivot and
focused on the COVID-19 response,
providing tents for testing and vaccination
sites, expanded restaurant capacities
and employee/guest checkpoints at
businesses and sporting events.
" COVID reshaped how we do business-
in a good way, " explains Willis. " With a
decline in business and furloughs, we had
to learn to do more with less. This resulted
in us taking a hard look at how we operated
and where we can improve eficiencies
from maintenance to cleaning to loading
and installation. "
Hopeful for a return to normalcy
When the tents used for testing sites and
vaccine distribution are inally packed up
and the public feels safe socializing again,
REVELXP
will be prepared to focus once
again on gamedays, weddings, music
events and more.
" One of our favorite events each year, preCOVID,
is the local Oktoberfest in Auburn, "
says Willis. The event, which typically
welcomes more than 2,000, requires
small tents for the 75 breweries involved
as well as large tents for guest seating and
entertaining. " It's the perfect combination
of our Tailgate Guys operations and a PRE
social event. " Plus, it's a favorite event for
their team members to attend.
Another Alabama event near and dear to
their hearts is the Storybook Farm Derby
Day. " As the event has grown, we have been
able to assist them in making it a mustattend
event each year, " says Willis. " We
love being able to help them expand the
attendee capacities from 250, irst year, to
now 1,000 people. "
