The Marine Corps Community Services (MCCS) organized the 8th Annual 24 at 29 Endurance Run and Relay Race "Semper Fit," a challenging and grueling 24-hour endurance event held at the Marine Corps Base in Twentynine Palms, California. As a way to enhance the race experience and create a memorable finish line for the runners, MCCS decided to use an inflatable custom arch as the start/finish line. The inflatable arch served as a visible marker and its vibrant red & white coloring added an element of excitement and festivity to the event. The arch's branding elements also help create a sense of unity and camaraderie among the runners and spectators. Inflatable arches are easy to set up and take down, making them a practical choice for any race event that requires quick and efficient set-up and break-down times.
"I was especially impressed with your ability to turn around such excellent work on very short notice, and at a fair price."
- R. Stever-Zeitlin, General Mills
“[The inflatable arch] created a wonderful backdrop to brand our events, capture our sponsors in the photos used by the participants, and made it easy to travel down the coast of California without taking up too much space on our trucks.”
"This year’s event was the highest attended in some time, and the [inflatable] astronaut, front and center on our Portico, was a great visible draw from all over the area."
